Remove sexually explicit ads

Temu has sexually explicit and disturbing ads at the top. I have reported them to Google at least a dozen times and nothing gets changed. Even if you click close or report, it pops right back up. Is there something you can help with other than pay for ad free? We've never had ads like this before.

Deb -

Just to confirm is this recent as of today?

[Deb]

Yes. The same ads have been rotating for a couple of weeks now.

In fact it just showed up at the top of this one.

Deb -

I only asked because as of last week they should have been blocked. I apologize that you are still seeing them.

Next time you see a temu ad if you could take a screenshot and PM it to me along with what region you are in please (the state if in US or the country if elsewhere). I can pass this on with my report that they are still displaying. Thank you.


FYI, I appreciate the link included originally, however we are not all served the same ad. So what you see is not necessarily the same that I see or the next user sees.

Scott - I did send you a PM...not sure how to ad the attachment but yes as of today in IL the ads are still appearing.

[Scott]

Deb - I had replied to your PM and gave you my email address to send me the screenshots.

My forum is still getting the sexually explicit ads from Temu. It's disgusting. I have tried everything. Scott...I tried to reply to you via pm and did not hear from you... I did not see an option to add attachments. Maybe you could just send me your email address to make it more simple?

[Deb]

We are all really sick of looking at this. In my opinion, anything from Temu should be banned.

To the best of my knowledge all Temu ads have been blocked.

FWIW, Temu ads are still the most frequent ads and they are most often the skimpy clothing and "questionable object" version ... that's  the one posted above with the image of the 'baby octopus'.

willoberry - we are looking into this.

If I may, I always get temu ads too, but they're based on things I have ordered from there. I've never seen those explicit ads on my forum.

So long as the content is not explicit then the ad is fine.

May I join in here as well? I too have tried every which way on Google to get rid of these blatant sex ads. Have turned off all ads on Google but still this gets through on my personal logging in. As a language forum,  just not interested. (Italianduo.boards.net). I haven't had any complaints from members so it must only be my log in. It happens when I also log into Life&Language. 

The ad mentioned appears at the foot of this page even as I type.
