Regarding mobile redirects/hijacks,
As I mentioned earlier, we are going to try, hopefully sooner than later, to handle the dreaded mobile advertising hijacks a bit better in 2018. More to come on that soon, I hope -- I am waiting for word.

Meanwhile, it's come to my attention that on the CHROME mobile browser, you can try this to fix:
- Load chrome://flags/#enable-framebusting-needs-sameorigin-or-usergesture in the browser's address bar.
- Switch the status of the "Framebusting requires same-origin or a user gesture" experimental flag from default to enabled.
- Restart the Chrome browser.

The workaround is not working for me. May try rebooting my phone altogether or killing Chrome vs
Soft restarting it.

Seriously sick of these virus alerts. Just disable ads for god's sake until you can stop them.
