Same here

SneakyGremlins · 28/05/2019 00:28

I'm not getting them when I'm using mobile data, only on my WiFi.

Can someone else test this?

HigaDequasLuoff · 28/05/2019 00:33

I tried clearing cache & cookies on chrome. No change, still happening.

Lyricallie · 28/05/2019 00:37

I hadn’t had it at all yesterday but getting the red box every page I open just now. Kept flashing up typing this out too Hmm

Batsypatsy · 28/05/2019 03:27

I'm getting this too.
At the top next to the web address there's a red triangle, guessing it's a chrome warning. Any ideas why?

Ok, this is getting far too frequent now, this website is unusable. It's actually popped up literally about twenty times just trying to reply to this thread. It's getting worse.

And my back button doesn't take me back. Sometimes nothing happens and it just refreshes the aame page over and over. Only on Mumsnet, every other site is fine

DontTouchMyCurls · 28/05/2019 03:52

I turned my WiFi off and now using data and no pop up for a good 5 minutes... Weird

Frittata · 28/05/2019 05:22

I had to stop reading last night - the site was totally unusable - red thing flashing up every few seconds.

SparklyMagpie · 28/05/2019 06:02

@DontTouchMyCurls

Mines been doing the same, either just keeps refreshing the same thread and I've not been able to use my back button at all since the pop ups started happening

Samsung & Chrome

RedSheep73 · 28/05/2019 09:19

Yes, but only on phone (motog7 using chrome), not on tablet. I had in on the Guardian website too, not just mn

samsonthecat · 28/05/2019 09:31
