Never click the X on ads - it's just click bait. Get a proper adblock instead.

Yup! A lot of them use that X as a link, or a download button. Stupid-ass Musk changed Twitter's logo to an X, and placed it on the top right of embeds, just so he can trick people into clicking it, which links to their website.
