Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse in government for farmers ……. Neil Parrish

I have researched specs of farm machinery on various sites only for a pop up window to appear encouraging me to visit a porn site. I haven’t visited such sites as I don’t agree with porn or want my details logged by such sites.
But why and how is it acceptable for these pop ups to appear when browsing for machinery data? I won’t use machinery data sites again that allow porn advertisement pop ups. Must of these data/spec sites are rubbish anyway and just a lure in for other promotions. As I’ve never viewed porn online I can’t see they have tailored the pop up based on any of my previous browsing other than maybe they guess I’m male.
It’s a bit like the various betting site adverts on the TV. Why on earth are they allowed? They only serve to make poor vulnerable impressionable people even poorer. Should be banned if there was real care about lifting folk out of poverty.

Sooner be seen coming out of a sex shop than a bookmakers!

I can honestly say in my years of browsing for machinery online, never once has a porn pop up appeared!!

I get everything from rubber pants to garden gnomes.

Can't you disable pop-ups on your device?

I'm not quite brave enough to gloogle @bovrill 's search suggestion

Oh go on, you know it'll prey on your mind until you've looked it up!

It came from a conversation where I expressed a desire for a "Fake Tractor" sticker in the style of the 'Fake Taxi' emblem, but couldn't find any for sale.
