FIXED! fix the video ads

[APartOfMe]

at the bottom of a bunch of pages there are video ads. about every 5 seconds, it jumps to the part of the screen where ad is. this makes browsing the site and threads impossible

Seem like most android devices, require unlocking bootloader, then says it will either format the system memory or void warranty. Also for some reasons, ads don't load at all or maybe they do and sometime later vanish. Wonder if is cause I stay on the page too long or just use the site links too much.

That's quite odd that they put in ads you didn't agree too.... have they said anything before about that?

Nope. They never mentioned any of that, so I feel cheated.

Edit: this looks like a solution for non-rooted, but i haven't tested.

Ouch, that's a really shady business practice, perhaps it was hidden somewhere in a contract of something?

Just to show what I mean, and yes I am using chrome without adblocker. It is very random how it happens.

What does it say when you highlight over it?

rooting is certainly more complicated than get a simple app, beside rooting a device also nullify ur warranty, i dont' see this could be a smart move here just to block some ads by rooting ur smartphone, i would rather get firefox+adblocks, with some easy steps you can also import all bookmarks to firefox as well...

Ha.
