Maybe this is a preliminary April Fools joke.

IB has been notified, but it will probably take until Monday for them to fix this.

Hopefully, this isn't permanent. I saw this stuff early this morning. I opened a page and it was fine. I posted a comment and then there it was. Looks worse on my phone.

Advertising to me is fine with me. Using my own words to do so is not.

How do I get rid of infolinks?
All of a sudden I'm getting those annoying infolinks. I followed the link and clicked opt-out but it didn't help. I also went into the security setting and added it to the list of blocked sites. Didn't help. Right now it appears it's only affecting dvdtalk.

It's an issue with the site. There's a thread in the feedback forum about it, and they're supposed to try and fix it on Monday.

Did you block infolinks.com?

Re: How do I get rid of infolinks?
I was out of town this week and noticed the green links on my iPad. When I booted up my computer at home this weekend all my browsers were hijacked by this StartNow adware/malware thing. I tried uninstalling and it is impossible to remove. I am extremely safe on this computer, so I feel like it was delivered through one of these infolink ads somehow. Is that possible? Did this happen to anyone else?
How can I get rid of this StartNow crap? My google search bars are all "StartNow" search bars, and the homepage was redirected to some StartNow address. It's not really doing anything, there is no system process I can find, no browser extensions, and full scans with Malwarebytes detect nothing. All the info online about this is dated.

Thanks for that.
