    1. don't use Adblock. owner sold out and is allowing companies to pay to have their ads bypass the blocking and show up

    2. use ublock origin (i won't link it because i'm not going to promote ad blocking on this site)

    3. whitelist that specific ad using ublock origin


    although i think your first step should be to contact dobber directly, i'm sure he'll remove that ad if it's causing this many headaches.

    Thanks. I've sent him an email. Here's a screenclip of the ad just in case:

    I'm in touch with Dobber about it. Tend to notice it at home so will check when I'm back on tonight or tomorrow.

    The other thing I noticed - might as well share - is that it's not a clickable ad, just the video that cannot be stopped.

    There ARE certain ads that will screen-bump you down.
    I had this happening to me last year.
    Dobber's pretty good about having his IT guys find them and fix them, but it may take a few days.

    This is the hard part

    We blocked the ads we thought it was when you first emailed me a few days ago. Then yesterday after your next email we guessed at a couple more URLs. These ads are nonsense and they cost websites money. And because they are based on reader location, we (in Toronto area) often can't get them and see for ourselves. So I appreciate it when you guys let me know

    I can appreciate that. Yeah, being regionally specific ads, perhaps there something that I could do on my end?
