This page shows like 15 copies of the same mildly NSFW ad. Surprised this is a thing on Spacedaily.



This is why I run Firefox on Android with uBO. It's a different world.


If you're on this site, you're definitely technical enough that seeing ads is totally your own fault.


He never should have worn that dress.


That's the thing, I'm certainly not the demographic the ad is targeting.


I think OP was talking about you not using an ad blocker, not about your ad preferences lol


Yeah, like the other guy said about Firefox android, I normally use Firefox focus and I saw "0 ads". Maybe it'd because of pihole but I suppose focus does a good job by itself.

People need to forget using chrome on android at least


Weird, the ads for me were very boring.


You need to browse more "interesting" sites. It will spice up your ads.


Sometimes these slightly-NSFW ads are what you get when you're heavy on ad blockers and such, because they're buying out the lowest/cheapest ad tiers where there isn't much targeting data available.


I'm definitely heavy on blockers and I didn't see any ad there (and basically anywhere else,) only the article text and pictures. I'm using Firefox and UBlock Origin on Android.


Chrome + NoScript (win10). No ads.

But, from word of mouth, UBlock Origin is more consistent.
