Australian Blackout? Did I miss something and are the servers hosted in like australia? ... Cause I'm getting this popup when I go to these forums about the Great Australian Blackout. o.o; Edit: Also a freaking guest sent me a PM about a "virus alert" claiming to be the forums.dats.admin ... no Guest PMs please?
I believe that the ad is for an event being held to support what seems to be a request for unrestricted internet access in Australia. The ad's popped up here a couple of times as well but it doesn't seem to do anything more than ppop up and ask to redirect (which you can stop by just closing the ad)
Supporting != shoving it in my face by making it a pop-up though. I abhor any and all pop-ups so making it popup just made me really apathetic to it. :0
I have visited a few times since yesterday, and it comes up each and every time. Not really an annoyance, but it gets in the way sometimes.
