Why is this advert on Mumsnet?

[MsAlignment]

Is encouraging very young women into sex work really what Mumsnet is for these days?

Interesting … Are you reluctant to put up a photograph of an advert shown on MN, @MNHQ?

can you describe the ad OP? Assume you tried to add a pic but it didn’t work?

What was the ad for? It sounds awful

Photo of a young woman, probably in her teens, dressed in a pink camisole with one strap falling down. Finger to her lips. Advertising ‘Free Video Chat.’ It’s patently obvious what it’s for. I’m not giving the name of the ‘product’.

I took a screen shot. And have never known it to take so long for MNHQ to approve a photo.

Weird, hope you manage to get your photo up OP. If not describe it more to us, if you don't mind. I would be interested.

I’ve already described the advert.

Screen shot or it didn’t happen.

What? You do realise this is the Site Feedback forum and not AIBU?

I recall other posters mentioning similar adverts OP.

Hi OP

This sounds like something we'd block - but it's really hard to do without seeing the advert and gathering a bit more info. Sorry about that.

We have approved the screenshot now and apologise for the delay. Can we ask where on site you were when you saw this? How frequently are you seeing it?

Looking at the full screenshot it was on Style & Beauty - this time. But I’ve seen it several times all over MN over the past couple of days. I generally scarcely notice the adverts but this one is really distasteful.

I’ve been seeing this one too, OP.

There are some wierd ones, seen this one too in chat section 🙄

Ali Express now on the sensitive scroll! As soon as you scroll down reading a thread the slightest touch on this one sends you to the shit slave driven goods. No thank you very much!
