silly ad?

Today I saw this ad in Facebook:
What does it mean? You can do small hobby boards with it, with lots of bodge wires? And why the screwdriver? Testing the board if it can survive random short-circuits?

Never pick random stock photographs from the internet? Lazy marketing drones?

Found the same image with Google image search, but without the wires and the screwdriver at
shutterstock
. So did they ask the designer to add the screwdriver and the wires?
Sheng Teng
uses the same image.

I believe I've seen that as part of an animated ad where they're trying to show what you can
avoid
by using AD. Not sure why it appeared on its own, as out of context it does look rather dumb.

Just for the lols, the image is updated:
Looks like a low complexity (like single-side PCB voltage regulator) wet PCB, with a band-aid on the right side
I wonder how much they pay to create and push all these ads on Facebook.
