Absolutely amazing. I wish this security forum had more traffic, since I'm not going to post this in general..... but this just blows me away.




We have a thread dealing with this. Post whatever you need to in that thread.
There was obviously a misunderstanding, it looks now like its being being addressed properly,
so I do not see the need to call out the Community manager in this.

This thread does not help the issues at hand.

From that thread...
You are all 100% correct. I misspoke. I'm terribly sorry for this misunderstanding. We are collecting information not to remove you from these ad services but to kill the ads themselves. If any of you can answer my PMs it will help in figuring where these ads are coming from and how they are targeting you.
So, seems like they are (finally) trying to fix it now.
