This Site is Attempting to Open a Pop-Up Window

Keep getting this message this morning when I'm reading threads in AIBU and it won't go away! If I click "Block" it just keeps coming back until I click on "Allow" and then the screenshotted website pops up in a new tab. I'm on an iPhone and it's only happening on Mumsnet. Any ideas MNHQ?

Hi OP,

This looks really frustrating - can we ask, are you using adblock? (It's fine if you are - it's just hard to block a popup without knowing what it is!)

LilyMumsnet · 19/01/2020 15:02

P.S Can you grab the url link to the popup so that we have a higher chance of blocking it directly? (apologies for missing the actual pop up screenshot!!)

Hi @LilyMumsnet. It seems to have stopped for the moment but I'll pop back with a link if it happens again.

And no, no ad-blocker that I'm aware of.
