*Porn advertising on College Confidential
I hope the CC moderators will permit this thread to remain in the Parents Forum.
I am not a prude by any means, but over the past week I have observed more pornography ads being displayed on websites where one would think they would be unwelcome by the website administrators. College Confidential caters to a large member base comprised mostly of teenagers under 18, so why would someone want to advertise pornography sites that require one to be over 18 to enter?
The banner ad at the top of the CC home page stated “Angelina Jolie Sex Scene.” The smaller text described the content as “nasty sex scene,” and “this dirty girl gets dirtier in this raunchy sex scene.” From that description I would imagine it would be X rated, requiring one to be 18 or over in order to view the content.*

I have noticed that when I am on various websites- including CC- the ads that pop up are triggered by other sites I have recently visited.
When on CC the ads are for Ross Univ Medical school-Kaplan University, fight meningitis, Chase bank education loans…
When on other websites, the ads are triggered by my city or other details- but while occasionally I have noticed a thread posted by a bot/spam, I haven’t noticed a problem with the ads.
