Q: Safari ad overlay, pop up and redirecting
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.3.5, Safari Apps
A lot of advertisment overlay the official website. When selecting some of the link on the webpage, it redirect me another advertising webpage. Never ever happened this before.
The website I experiencing this problems:
2. http://www.cio.com/article/3071336/apple-p****e/the-best-ad-blockers-for-ios-dev ices.html
Been troubleshoot by but problem still occur:
1. Press HOME and SLEEP button simultaneously to reset iPhone.
2. Clear History and Website data.
3. Browse the website using different devices. When browse on iPad Pro iOS 9.3.5, same problems existing. When browse on another iPhone 6 Plus iOS 9.3.5, no advertisement appear on the same website.
Method that successfully solve the problems:
1. Block all cookies, but happen to be some website unable to load.
2. Install 1 blocker (the only ad blocker that solve the problem. Adblock Plus did not solve the problem)
I never been facing this issues before this even though I allow cookies on website I visit and never install any adblocker.
I am looking for a solution other than the solutions listed. I believe there must be something wrong with my phone, the ads showed are appropriate to my regions and recent shopping product. Also suspect Pokemon GO that collect my informations on my phone, as this issue happen after few weeks I play Pokemon Go. Wondering if my phone has virus or malware?
