The 17ing pop up ads

No doubt they do indeed. I’ve had a much more pleasant experience using Brave the last day and a half almost exclusively as some of you recommended. Not even having those pop up adds I have with Safari as I’ve used it to compare the difference. Which browser are y’all using or the app? I prefer Brave over DuckDuckGo as of now. When I use Safari the pop up adds and adds are horrible
We’ve got Peter Sirmon in charge of the ad blocker department
Will Friend would be more appropriate for blocking but since we're talking about defending against something I'll allow it**
Seriously I haven’t had a single problem since switching to Brave. Give it a try guys, it can solve your problem. I have an Iphone but I’m sure it’s available for android as well
I have an Iphone 13 and haven't put anything on it. No pop-ups. I'm on my CB laptop at the moment and use the free Adblock+. No pop-ups. I can't remember the last time I had pop-up ads.
Gonna try Brave. The popup ads are just ridiculous now.
That’s cool, Im on a half broken 11 Pro Max it’s missing all kinds of pieces of glass at the top and bottom but has been through hell. The only reason I haven’t upgraded to the 15 is because I’m debating between Verizon and T-Mobile. I’m sick of AT&T it seems they don’t care as much. Was super happy with Verizon before but Wife and I switched to AT&T BC it was Uber cheap with our families business plan. T-Mobile has surpassed AT&T these days I was reading recently. So yea gotta make my mind up.
Make sure Brave shield is On. You can check it by tapping the little Lion on the address bar at the top.
Got it! This is way better. It says it is blocking 27 popup ads used by DS to fund 88” big screens and snacks.
I hope this does not hurt him lifestyle!
If you’re using Safari on your phone download AdGuard in the App Store. It’s amazing.

Awesome!! Glad it helped you! Yeah mine says blocking 23. Rediculous amounts.
Of the ad - not what brave is blocking.
It is almost unbearable to me. Especially the ones you cant X out of. I'll still read don't worry, but it's so damn annoying.
Even if you X out they put a new one up there within 5 seconds. The ribbon at the bottom is one thing but these gigantic respawning ones are crazy.
Thank you. I pass these to On3. They told me the bigger ads should not be an expectation as well. First time I've heard that.
Sorry, you said post what I was seeing and at the moment I was seeing that my bad. Want me to post pics of the pop ups still? Or you good now? Just checking. I l can hope on Safari and see how they are. This is a better browser to me anyways
I finally got my new Mac computer and at the same time worked out a combination for viewing this page that for me seems to be working. When I came here first with Safari, it would not log in it would not even show me the login page. I went back and took all of the ad block software and turned the extensions off the Safari preferences. Every one of them. I restarted Safari, and I was then able to log in but I saw ads everywhere. I turned all my Ad Blocker software extensions back on and now I have the webpage back with no ads. I'm glad because with my iPad I was using until I got this computer the page was incredibly covered with ads and I was just about to lose my mind.
I had a similar issue on my Mac (with Safari, Chrome, and Firefox) - couldn't even get to the login page. That lasted for several months, and then one day two or three weeks ago, I was signed in. And I did nothing at all to make that happen that I know of.
I downloaded this a week or so ago when you mentioned it in another ad thread. Haven’t had a pop up since - thanks for the suggestion.If you’re using Safari on your phone download AdGuard in the App Store. It’s amazing.
