So this is a new one. I clicked on a thread and I suddenly got sent to a new site about meeting local girls with naked women on the front. I closed it pretty quick, but flirt was in the website name. I know we've had our share of bad ads on this site before and redirects, but this is the first time this has happened with porn sites.

I know this isn't anything caused by my iPhone.



EDIT:

Guys, I said it came as a redirect from clicking a thread. You can stop the site History jokes. And I always use Incognito mode.

I always use 2 browsers.... Chrome for everyday web browsing, and firefox is my porn browser lol Dont ever use the same one if you think someone else might see it.

What's with the site history stuff? Yeah some are but there's a bunch of annoying ads I get that about stuff I've never looked up.

I don't know what kind of shit some of y'all have installed on your phone, but I've never, not once, gotten a redirect or pop up using Safari on iPhone.

Neogaf has had known incidents of redirects on ads.

Does that Join The Razer Community ad count? (Naked woman with a razer logo on her butt.)

No, I'm sure people are looking up "Free Wal-Mart Gift Cards from dodgy websites pretending to be Facebook" all the time.

You use incog mode on GAF? Why?

Your wife/gf check your phone to make sure you don't go to not approved threads?

Just got my first pop up redirect while on off topic mobile. Clicked a thread and was completely redirected to some porn scam site. Brand new phone and I've never been to a porn site on any phones.

I had it happen tonight as well.
I don't use the phone to surf porn

Stop looking at porn while on gaf?

Stop posting in threads without reading OP?

I don't think so. I keep getting Kia and Toyota ads and I never look for any cars online. And a Mazda ad on this thread right now!

Yeah, many ads on GAF are not based on web history. I get all sorts of ads to things I'd have no reason to ever care about.

I've gotten redirected to other sites in the past. Used to happen multiple times a day but it's been a while. Was really annoying.

Edit: Did no one read the OP?
