MVS Contributors - ads, ugh!

Post by matthew1 »

Bear with me, I'm switching ad networks, so you may see ads for a couple of days. Apologies!

MVS Contributors get no ads. Become a contributor -- subscribe today and get the satisfaction of supporting a "Mom and Pop" business.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

The only thing I’m seeing is an ad banner at the top of the screen that moves and blocks the controls menu and the logout button.

Then just now when logged in there’s a translucent / frost banner at the top that kind of ghosts out text. It gets bigger and slides down the page.
These were both on an iphone.

Ooof. Inundated with banner ads in every post. It’s creepy how they follow your content reading. Next time I meet someone working for google I’m going to follow them from a one foot distance looking over their shoulder, then ask them how they like that.

I backed out the changes... unswitched ad networks.
