Can someone at road.cc please block the skybet advert. Every time I try to view an article on my phone I get taken to the App Store and you can't just click back or it goes back to the home page. 

 

Cheers

Often this happens the moment I open the site on Chrome on iOS. Any other site I probably wouldn't bother with again but I'm trying to be patient with it

i think the offending ad is opening up another browser window which is then redirecting to the app store.

if anyone can tell me what that URL is i can block it - we can't get the ad here!

I see a "clash of king's" narrow banner before it happens if that helps? Can't guarantee it's guilty though - kind of hard on a phone because you can't access the logs etc. easily.

Also I think I saw a different ad before it happened yesterday...

Happening to me when I "click" on both picture and text. But can also "activate" when scrolling to read articles.

It's happened to me a couple of times clicking in off of Twitter.

yeah we are on this, but we haven't yet worked out where it's coming from. where are you clicking from to view the article?
