Does anyone else get an infinite redirect loop visiting on mobile safari?

Edit: it’s fixed by requesting the desktop website.

When the url changes I redirect, what do you do sir?
No, but I get 20 different ads that are covering 70% of a screen and they're not blocked. Instant close.
Sometimes I just forget how awesome uBlock Origin has been doing it's job for EIGHT years
I sent my father in law an article the other day, and he wound up clicking a scam ad that got his computer hacked. He showed it to me, it wasn't the most obviously scammy ad I've seen- plenty of people who didn't grow up with the internet might have fallen for it!

But anyway, on my laptop, the article was just clean text and a byline with some well-formatted images.

Failing to install ublock on your parents computer is a form of abuse! :-)

Interesting. I have Safari on MacOS, with Ads from AdBlockPro installed, and StopTheMadness, and I'm seeing zero ads.
Javascript kept disabled by default...zero ads, zero evidence of ads existing.
