Advertisers Auto-Translating Their (Google) Ads

I’m seeing more and more of these badly (likely) auto-translated*, “When will you die" type of Google ads on different websites (and in my Gmail ads). A rough back translation would probably be “When will yuo die? Calculater the life length check, when you will die. dayofmydeath.com”.

*Auto-translated by the advertiser, that is, presumably... auto-translated, or manually translated by a non-native speaker.
