Article mobile ads blocking content

[yRaz]

So recently the mobile ads when they load have been covering up content in the articles. I don't know if these scrolling ads are new to techspot or not because of how common they are on the internet, but they are blocking the articles. They are really annoying on mobile so please get rid of them if you can. I understand that the website needs to make money but types of ads are too invasive and reflect poorly on the website.

That's a horrible user experience and certainly unintentional. We're working with our ad partners to fix this ASAP. Thanks for reporting this!

@yRaz if I may use your experience, I believe you read TechSpot pretty often. Can you pinpoint when this erratic ad behavior began? Was it this week or was it before?

We're pretty certain in July it was all good, but because of the ad rotation and those ads showing mostly to US visitors, we can't say when exactly in August the bug started showing up.

Thanks to your report we have fixed the issue, hopefully for good
