Originally posted by bertwert Ironically, this happened to me right now when opening this thread. It's a full screen popup ad covering the whole browser and you have to find the x to close it before you can see the thread. This on Chrome on Android. Nothing wrong with ads, they are a necessary evil to maintain this site, however this is quite intrusive and really degrades browsing experience here. It's certainly new, as I've not seen them before these past couple days where they now pop up every so often.
I thought Google was banning those full-page popups, but in looking just now I guess it's only Google ads that can't be those page-covering popups?
I run Ghostery so I really don't see ads anyway, or at least rarely do.
