Yeah starting again. Seems every few months we get a nice little "breakout" of these.

Can't use the mobile version of the site. Redirects to annoying ads for junk.

Just imagine how 1/6 would've played out if DC hadn't had such strict gun laws.

IIRC it's Google ads. They push out whatever people give them.

iPad whether using Safari or Chrome. Cleared browsing history and cookies on both but still get this continuously. It is rendering TexAgs unusable.

I get similar on my Samsung, but it is a hijack, not a popup. It takes over the open window (I use chrome) and will only go away by closing the window (not the browser.) If I simply close and reopen the browser, the window is still there.
***It's your money, not theIRS! (At least for a little while longer.)

I literally see zero ads across 3 machines, and 90% of my time here is iPhone.

iPhone: I have 26 apps, all free, in a folder. Nothing gets past it, including on very bad ad sites such as CDCN and ZeroHedge.

Windows desktop: Use AdBlock and Ghostly extensions.

Simple.
