Friend of mine's dad died in an auto accident. Fairly prominent doctor. In the days afterward before any bonafide obits or new stories came out there were tens of mashed up obit articles and youtube videos posted from what seemed like places in India hoping to clickbait spam you on google's search page. Not surprised in the year since it's moved to AI. The news of the death must have come from some sort of database they'd hacked into or some kind of malware that tracks name + death because nothing on the public internet or any of the local government sites had any thing available.
