RTG Getting pop-ups, Audio, redirects, ads overlaying text, malware reports from ads please read this



Why is nothing being done about this? It's getting worse not better. I've just been redirected again to that poker app, from the same thing d.affrrx.com. A new tab is opened that redirects to the App Store. However, when I went to switch screens, the address was different, as can be seen in the bottom of the screenshot below. If I selected that screen it went back to the d.afftrx address. Dunno if this is any help mind.

A lot is being done behind the scenes even if you don't see it.

I still don't know which network the ads are coming from, or even which adslot they are served from (there a 2 on a page), but I do keep changing the networks that are used on mobile on a daily basis and I am also restricting the number of ads that are delivered to an individual from any one network each day (providing you aren't blocking cookies). I suspect if I replaced the small ad at the top with a larger one like at the bottom, the problem would largely go away (as the spammers are probably using the cheapest traffic they can get), but I am sure such a move would be equally unpopular.

They do seem to be predominantly affecting people with iphones and I don't have one of them to test with myself, so I am still relying on feedback on this thread to know when things happen - any reports are noted, and equally if those of you who have suffered a lot let me know if they stop or lessen that would be useful.

I can't fully disable the ads as that would leave a huge funding shortfall for the site.

Just got redirected from the jury service thread to something like fuck book dating . com and one of the ads on the bottom of the page was Anglia windows.

On an Android Samsung using Chrome

Same redirect, banks fined 6bn thread, bottom page ad was for University of Liverpool

Yeah I keep getting redirected to something strawberry which then sends you to 'Free Fuckbook Dating.' It takes ages to get back to the original page. It's happening a lot.
