Pop Up Ads

[E_man]

It's been happening for a little bit now, so I figured I'd ask for some clarification. Nearly every time I open an android central link from rss (or any other mobile nations site) I get a pop up video ad in both firefox and chrome.

I turn off adblock for sites like AC, WPCentral, iMore, (and other internet news sites) because I realize that's how you guys make money. Pop up videos ads are too much though. I'm hoping it's something on my end. Are you guys purposely serving these?

Unfortunately these are served by the ad providers and are quite common across the net.

Not that common, because unfortunately, that's pretty much the line where a lot of people I know enable adblock, myself included. Hope it works out for you guys.

When I say common, I'm referring to other sites (besides AC), use ad providers that display the same type of ads. XDA is one example that comes to mind.
