Netgear serving ads on router pages - completely unacceptable

Just loggedinto my R7000p to notice ADS on the router interface. Thats right ADS.

What sort of **bleep**wittery is this ? 

Security breach much ?

Absolutely never buying this tripe again.

      A banner ad and a side bar ad for orbi equipment on my R7000P

      Note: R7000P has different firmware than R7000 - I know this because that is one of my other routers, and it's unaffected.

      Luckily AdBlock Plus put an end to it.
