i hope they do
Bicky:
it is quite straightforward to objectively decide if an advertisement is intrusive or not lmao
PhantOS:
what happens after an ad is clicked is no longer the website's business. they don't have the time or resources as a free service to say 'man i want this ad and not this one' and if you expect any business to do this you're expectations are too high.

as for the amount of ad revenue agencies that can be chosen, they probably chose the cheapest one out there, considering they are a free service. something like google ads that filters out bad ads would cost more per views than others

if you don't want malware then don't click on it. as for the popup that happens when you click on the screen, that's a legitimate issue and i would raise that issue to mediafire as well

This is so stupidly wrong. Malwarefire has ads that look like they could be the download button which could catch people off guard and they also have a window open every once in a while. Do some loving research before you say handicapped stuff like this.

forget you, i literally checked 10 different mediafire link. once again, the 'download here!!!!' malware button isn't their loving choice, it's the choice of whatever ad revenue agency they have.

you know, you'd think the loving dark gray box that they intentionally put around their real download button is intentional to separate it from the ads. but of course, they are clearly acting out in malice and do everything they can do entrap users in malware. shame on them, as a free non-profit service, for having some way to earn money to keep their site up and running.

maybe you need to do a little research, understand how free websites earn ad revenue in the first place
