This should not be on us to remedy. It’s on the site admins to stop doing business with shady advertisers.
Like some posters said on the other thread about pop-up spam, I’m just not going to read CC on my phone anymore.
CC should do better by its members.
Not just CC. i have had this issue on my android phone occasionally from other sites (very occasional and seemingly random when i click on a link from somewhere). I just close the browser app.
Yes, I’ve had the issue from other sites, also. And inevitably I realized that I shouldn’t have clicked on the link.
But CC is a supposedly reputable site. We are right to expect better from them.
I have only had this when a CC tab is open, whether it not I am looking at CC at the moment.
Placing an ad on, e.g., Google is an automated process (I’ve done it for my iOS app). Google won’t know about a bad pop-up until it’s reported (and how do we even report it?). The crooks are clever, often ahead of efforts to contain them.
The spam pop-up crud is back. Had been gone for a couple of days. Am not using the CC app.
