folks with the Ad issues - are you using a phone or a desktop - and - which browser?
I'm not seeing any of that on my iPhone or using my Mac MX 1 Studio and the Chrome browser ....

Yeah, my old iPad here is not getting any ads like that whatsoever.

Older MBP here and have never gotten any of these add's, occasionally use my iPhone and again no adds

As I've said in the past I believe this to be end user browser configurations (lack thereof) for folks having this issue along with privacy settings in their phones

Just now I started noticing screen-size-shifting ads appear in my AK feed.

1. I don't think I'm supposed to see ads, being a subscriber. Is that correct?
2. An ad changing the layout or zoom of a page I'm reading is really poor form. I instantly was mad at this site for letting such happen.

Take note that ads are "targeted." What you are shown, and not shown, depends on your viewing history, your browser type and its settings, phase of the moon, whatever. But the point is that everyone sees something different.

That's all well and good, but what we're complaining about is the excessive size of the adverts and not the details you describe. (You didn't mention screen size).

I'm experiencing the same behavior now.
 
I have KIA and Coke ads popping up lately. Using my laptop with Google Chrome. Never had issues before these.
 
@Advally
I was just browsing the site and a KIA ad rolled up in the bottom of my browser!
I'm a subscriber, moderator etc - and I believe NO ADS should appear ...
I am certainly NOT in the market for a new SUV, and not for a KIA anything ...

My issue was with Android 14 on my Pixel phone. However just updated to 15 and so far no JBL ad has appeared.
 
I'm assuming you rechecked your current Chrome settings to make sure this isn't an end user issue before posting? My guess is this is an end user issue ie; a possible browser and or ios update, setting configurations or lack there of.

Moderators are volunteers, It's Sunday and Superbowl Sunday at that so I assume they're doing what they do on Sundays (family, loved ones, etc) they are not here 24/7 scouring this thread

Posting repeated screen shots is not going to get them to jump so you're just wasting your time.

There are a LOT of folks here on AK who access via their Iphones using Google Chrome browser yet I haven't seen any of them chiming in.

Are you using an adblocker? if not you should look into it, they're free and work quite well
