Or the Just Cartridges ad. Only on these Google ads, but,,,, I've gone through my Google settings with a fine tooth comb, turning everything ad related on, then off again. That never made the slightest bit of difference !!! Got a blocker on my mobile and laptop which work fine. Now got one on my tablet, but it's a browser too (but does block all unwanted ads), so just got PW on that and use Chrome for everything else. As to what that points too, IMO it's an intrusive thingamabob which needs sorting !!! Edited June 12, 2023 by JKD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 The Mods have normally flicked a switch by now after a thread like this? @welsh1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you carefully click on the X on those ads, a Google message tab appears. Click on report ad,,,, then click on 'not interested'. See what the Google message is then 🤔🙄 So it is definitely connected to Google and PW, not cookies etc, although those do play a small part methinks 🙈 On 08/06/2023 at 19:53, JKD said: Just to add,,,, this is only happening on PW and most ads are related or loosely related to the topic and subject I'm looking at. As said above,,,, some drop-downs are the same as the main and at the top of a page. I've gone through all possible parts of Google and Chrome and settings etc and turned off anything that was on and relating to ads or privacy. Perhaps it's a site setting and needs the boss ( @Teal ) to get involved ? Here is my earlier reply 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh1 Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 I would think the ads are algorithum driven and their content is worked out by traffic it detects and then optimises for the biggest catchment. All i can say is some of you really need to get out more lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this tablet for 2 years and never had adblock on it and never had pesky annoying adverts until these 🤷 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKD Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 That's what I get now, but did also previously, until the page was refreshed or looking in at the different sections etc. Even then, sometimes it was only just as you're getting,,,, Browning and Just C's 😆 ................................. So this is what I'm getting on my Adblock browser and Chrome browser.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 If this can be sorted that would be great, but if not it'll be the Adblocker Browser from now on,,,, for me anyway 🙂 Thanks 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance I'm pressing that X it's a trap!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
