WTH mumsnet? Don’t you think this is disrespectful to the people who write on this forum? 50% of their content is unreadable. The ad remains and the broken thread moves.
Also disrespectful to your audience. Stop it.

Change your browser to duckduckgo. No ads, ever.

You'll need to name change in another browser but that's a minor inconvenience...

No need to name change. You keep your name, your posting history, saved threads.... everything minus the ads. The bliss.

Hi @Francestein

Thanks for flagging this and for the screenshot, that is really helpful. Sorry it has been getting in the way of your reading.

From the screenshot it looks like you were on Safari on an iPhone rather than the app, could you confirm that is right? It would also help a lot if you could send over the link to the thread you were on, roughly what time of day you saw it, and whether you were logged in at the time. And if it turns up again, tapping the small "i" icon in the corner of the ad will show who it belongs to, which would let me block the specific advertiser straight away.

I will start digging into it in the meantime.

Thanks!
