    Is anyone else annoyed or concerned about these Chinese advertisements appearing on the Steeler website?

    I use an ad blocker on most sites, so I've never seen them.

    Steeler website? Never heard of her.

    This is the only Steelers site I use.

    Not sure what web site you are talking about. Often ads that appear to YOU are generated by what you have looked at in your scrolling history (over a myriad of sites). I personally cannot share the ads I see, you would all think I am a very naughty person.

    I had some pop up at work based on my job when I'm on the employee wifi. Had one promising a free concert by Sheryl Crow if I used this recruiting service at my employer. Its funny to see. Currently TTF's ad banners are showing me Halloween costume ads

    That makes sense, I was wondering why I was getting ads for ball stretchers, I thought is was because I responded to all the posts on Ben's deep balls.

    Couldn't care less but am always amazed that after I leave E-bay the items I was looking over appear at the top of the Steeler page instantly.

    China has a billion people to feed. Let them run a few ads on a Steelers message board while you eat your Whopper Jr. for lunch.

    That’s by design. It costs the advertiser a little more to have you followed after visiting their site or product. I haven’t done it with my business yet, but my rep has been pushing it.

    haven’t seen any ‘China’ ads.... Have a Bestbuy one now, even though I haven’t looked at their site.

    I know it more involved, but the ad agencies are not selling for one web site. The ads are generated by many different sets and subsets. It supposed to generate the greatest response, my boss calls it a tax write off lol
