I use an IPad to look at the forum and the page I see is ok with just the adverts down right side and the koranda ad across the top, cant say they bother me at all as I go on, read the topics and I’m gone, nothing pops up they are just static ads which is much like any commercial website that has to be paid for, but the one thing that does bother me is the annoying privacy tab at bottom left, if I log in I get that popping up every 5 minutes and I have to decline ads and close it but if I’m not logged in I set it for decline ads and that’s it dealt with, I think adverts are just something we have to just tolerate as they are probably going to get more and more prevalent, I do wonder about the ad blockers as well, any ad blocker you instal must have access to see what internet sites your on or wouldn’t be able to see the ads that it needs to block, how can you be totally confident the only thing being looked at are adverts or am I just untrusting of the internet. When you think back a little way all you ever read was in print such as magazines and newspapers the same adverts were on every page you turned so really nothing has changed at all.
