In reply to Otto.

You don’t have to. The response from everyone at WordPress.org speaks louder than any words (spoken or typed) ever could.

It’s blatent advertising for a paid service (it’s the paid service part that everyone has the problem with) that’s injected as part of the core site outside of anything that Jetpack has a part in or controls, with 99% the same styling made to look as much as humanly possible like a standard search result. There’s no way that any other plugin would have been allowed to do this. We’ve all seen plugin authors slapped down in the forums and slack for a whole lot less.
