Certain NSFW ads

**BonnieShels** · 05/04/2017, 1:50 PM

So far today have been asked to explore Japanese women and then seek Arabian ones.

I thought this had stopped ages ago?

**osarusan** · 08/04/2017, 8:24 AM

Says Greek and Russian women on mine.

Niiiiice.

**dahamsta** · 09/04/2017, 11:56 PM

What's NSFW about them? I need screenshots and/or links.

**DannyInvincible** · 10/04/2017, 12:37 AM

I've been getting the same. Here's an example:

In fact, that's one of the less risqué or provocative ones.

**DannyInvincible** · 10/04/2017, 1:44 AM

Here's one of the Russian-themed ones:

And another:

It links to the following: https://www.googleadservices.com/pag...3D190296641174

I'm failing to see the problem...

**dahamsta** · 11/04/2017, 12:58 PM

I have to confess, I am too. Those ads aren't served universally, they're served using search (and browser if using Chrome) history as a reference, so not everyone will see them. And they're hardly obscene.

Either way, I can only block them if I get the actual target URL, googleadservices.com is Google's delivery URL.

**DannyInvincible** · 11/04/2017, 1:31 PM

Things don't have to be obscene to be NSFW.

What's the target URL and how would I go about getting it? Is it charmdate.com?

**tetsujin1979** · 11/04/2017, 9:28 PM

Not obscene, but I can see more than one office taking a dim view of them

**dahamsta** · 12/04/2017, 1:09 PM

Very prudish offices? A little cleavage is causing problems?

**nigel-harps1954** · 12/04/2017, 2:50 PM

Working in Iona Institute offices?

**Real ale Madrid** · 12/04/2017, 10:59 PM

Pretty disturbed with what I'm seeing at times. Think something should be done. Screenshot here:

Very sensible, too. I find that drawing the blinds and blotting out natural light provides optimum viewing conditions. It also stops the neighbours banging on the door all the time.

In fairness, would anybody notice another pair of t*ts in there?

Possibly a disconnect between those catching a glimpse of them and those who know how tenuous viral advertising links can be. I was getting these too and am in an open plan work space, it did draw several comments that I was uncomfortable with as peoples impression of me even if in jest (and once or twice not in jest)

And its not the cleavage, its the women looking for men, which if you are happily spoken for (for one example) isn't necessarily the impression you want to lead with on your laptop.

**dahamsta** · 16/04/2017, 2:10 PM

TBH I'm happy to block them, but the only URL I have so far is charmdate.com, which looks pretty innocuous to me.

**DannyInvincible** · 16/04/2017, 5:29 PM

lp.anastasiadate.com and arabiandate.com are two others I've encountered.

How did they work out for you? I think SkStu is the only one I know who seems to have had any success at these sites.

**SkStu** · 17/04/2017, 10:13 PM

Excuse me?! The only site I used was CP's Nightclub in Galway!

Although sometimes I think I could have studied the online alternatives a little closer.
