October 5, 201114 yr Yesterday Youtube was carrying very strange ads - really spammy, and most-importantly lacking "Ad Choices" link to manage user prefs. These ads are actually coming from a third party who is intercepting the requests and injecting HTML into the page. That 3rd party is very likely to be the ISP. I'm sure Google will really take issue with the "Make Money at Home with Google" scam ads appearing on Youtube. Same thing happening on Yahoo! Finance (finance.yahoo.com). Some screens attached. Any other True users noticed weird ads on major web properties?
October 5, 201114 yr Nope -- no ads for me. But then again, I'm using an adblocker so I don't see ads anyway...
October 5, 201114 yr You should check your computer for virus or malware. ^^ that. Much more likely than True doing it IMO
October 5, 201114 yr Since Google owns YouTube, seeing get rich ads from Google would be a no brainer.
October 6, 201114 yr Author You should check your computer for virus or malware. ^^ that. Much more likely than True doing it IMO Yes indeed. Not a local virus, but a very badly behaved Chrome extension called Cloud Save. Next time I should WGET before opening my big mouth :-S
