So if you run across an ad that plays audio or redirects to the app store, you just put up with it and hope it doesn't happen again? I hope you can at least understand why others may want a more robust solution to guarantee that never happens.
- Klathmon 10y agoI honestly haven't hit either of those, so it might be my own little bubble here is why I feel this way. I hear about them a lot when talking about advertising, but I've never seen them personally. But if I did get an audio ad, or a redirect ad, and they were consistent enough that it became a problem, i'd stop using that site. I mean, on a scale of bad things, having an audio ad play once isn't really all that high up the ladder. Yeah, it's not ideal, and it shouldn't happen, and if it happens a few times i'm going to stop going there, but it's a sound on a website. Removing an entire chunk of income from a news website because I'm afraid of hearing an audio ad (something most trustworthy sites also don't want in their ads) seems over the top.
