I'm surprised that running an ad includes the option of including free-form scripts. What's wrong with animated GIFs, as least these should be safe.

- wan23 16y agoThe display ad ecosystem these days is very complicated.

There's no way for the ad servers to know what kinds of other things need to be called and with what parameters, so they serve scripts which load scripts that eventually load a creative.
