Google ads on iPhone?!

I’m now (as of today) seeing google ads on safari on my iPhone - at the top of the page, but rather irritatingly right in the middle of some peoples posts. Even when closed the box remains and I can’t actually read the posted content. 

As it stands, it’s actually now impossible for me to view the forum on my iPhone as the content is obscured in random locations.

Was turning the ads on a conscious move by the team? If it was then it’s ruined the experience on iPhone for me and rendered it unusable.

Sorry our fault, we were waiting for Google to update something and I had an email from them this morning - I didn't realise by default they give you 'auto ads' all over the bloody place. We're configuring them to be as they were before at the moment.

Phew! I thought I was going to have to buy new lingerie, send money to Somalia, buy viagra, a new travel iron and subscribe to a wine distribution service just to read what @Al Krow had written about the Helix Stomp.

(just to clarify, I still think it would have been worth it...)

They are BIG too. The home page earlier was one giant ad on my phone. I had to scroll down to see the forum headings

They are targeted ads - they know we are all impressed by big size and volume but little actual content 🤣

I like 'em. 

I've already bagged myself a new boiler, a chainsaw, an old bike from a Police auction and a hot Polish date! 

What's not to like? 

🤣😂

Look, if I wanted all that I'd go to Lidl, not Basschat! 😁
