As an FYI for this,
these are not ads we have approved but scammers who get mobile redirect code inside of an ad on programmatic exchanges. Every major website is vulnerable to these types of redirect scams. Please report them
as macron stated above so we can block their specific redirect URL which will prevent that one from popping up again.

I'm just minding my own business reading a page, and then BAM, I get slapped across the face with shit like this out of nowhere.
Sometimes I can just press Back to go back to the page (which would be annoying enough, why not have these open in separate tabs or windows at the very least?), but sometimes they do the thing where you *can't* go back because even if you hold down the Back button, all you'll see is a dozen permutations of the same shitty spammy ad link.
There is no earthly reason ads should be this intrusive and it puts a bad taste in my mouth when all I'm trying to do is read about a game/movie/show I like.
