Title: Ads
Post by: WoodsDuck on February 02, 2017, 03:06:53 PM
I'm curious if MTo is using some randomized, or customized to the viewer, ad service, or if there's a vetting process for the services and products we're shown.

The reason I ask is just that there are some ads for questionable companies on occasion, one in particular has a rather over the top and misleading pitch for its likely subpar product. If a mod wants to PM me I'll point out the company in question and my issues with it, but I think it would be disrespectful to publicly trash an advertiser out of nowhere.
Of course, if it's all automatic and based on user cookies or similar, I guess there's no point worrying about it  :shrug:

It is Google Adsense and is based on your browsing habits.  Google feeds targeted ads to everyone's browser and we don't really have anything to do with it.

If however there is anything offensive that you don't want to see, send me a PM with that site's info/domain and I can add it to a blocked list so they won't be fed through our site anymore.
