    New Invasive Ads


    I realize that OS has to put food on the table predominantly with ad revenue and not our meager one-time supporter fees, but I have been seeing some troubling popups that don't offer you the ability to close them.

    On my PC using Chrome and have seen this on multiple computers only on OS.

    These ads are inconsistent in that sometimes they'll pop up right when the page loads...other times it seems they appear after being idle for a bit. When the ad appears it's one of those with scantily clad babes or "you'll be shocked by xx" types with 3 or 4 images lined up in a vertical orientation one on top of another. It takes up only a small portion of the screen, has a question mark and "sponsored links" embedded, but no "X" that you can use to close it. Plus, these are the type of ads that scream "scam website" and I'm sure nobody wants to associate OS with that bargain basement garbage.
