If the screenshot in the article is to be believed, it literally has a typo, missing a quote for Don't, which is usually one of the most common ways to spot suspicious activity and malware, and now, as someone working for an MSP, I have to now tell those users who see this that confusingly, yes this was legitimate and it was a Microsoft ad. The font isn't exactly standard either, the buttons look like Arial which also just looks suspicious.
If it helps give a bit of reassurance, I grew up after the Digg era, and I didn't even know it was a thing until the whole Reddit thing.
Maybe in ten years time, the next generation will be the same about Reddit, or at least, one can only hope.
