Apple has taken over the YouTube homepage today to advertise stickers on the iPhone 7. It is very similar to the TV ad for the same thing.

I am Apple defender for the most part and I own many of their products, but to me, this whole stickers concept is sophomoric and silly (And I mean no offense to those who appreciate it.)

Is this almost effectively an automated account essentially only posting some occurrences of Apple advertisements in various places?
 
I don't see what the big deal is. Apple paid for advertising and made use of it.
As it all happens with pretty much any company on many different web sites (and other mediums like TV, radio, print, etc.) essentially all the time for a long long time.
