I love how the responsibility is always on the end user to watch out for and report malicious ads, and in postings like this they always talk about how good they are at removing the "bad ads".
If we're going to be test subjects for new malware delivery vectors that the owner of the site has no control over then I think we should at least get numbers for revenue and profitability for these ad programs.
I guess this post isn't really about StackExchange, I'm just tired of being the product and the test subject of these monstrous ad networks.
- MrMember 7y agoThat's been the case for ages, I've seen it across many sites. When it's discovered a site is distributing malware through ads they'll wring their hands and say they aren't responsible for the content their site distributes, and then the next day they're complaining about people using adblockers. It's so transparent and pathetic.
