2022 model and about every three months I'll get one for Sirius XM or something related to that. It's only when the vehicle starts up and initializes. Its annoying but Ive been on the Internet since the late 90's, my ability to practice the 5 D's: dip, dodge, duck, dive and dodge for popups is muscle memory.

For reference, for anyone who isn't familiar with the 2004 movie Dodgeball.

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.

I’ve been on the internet since the same time and the ability that I developp is to install blockers for all that shit. No car will make watch ads, I’de rather walk.

I agree but it's not always black and white. It's a pop up every once in a while that I click an x on and move in with my life.
I'm not defending it, but I'm also not loading a new OS on my truck or spending time working on changing it. I obviously hate the popup and don't want it but it's been 3 years, its just something I have to do and move on with life in 2 seconds every few months.
