I keep seeing this ad when viewing posts

I know not to open it. But someone like my father would blindly listen to this and install whatever junk this is trying to install.

Unfortunately it's a cat and mouse game.

Deceptive ads are a violation of the ToS but they take time to be detected.

The paid version of the app is ad-free. Or you could switch to an app like voyager.

I think you can report the ad by clicking on the blue icon on the top right corner of the banner.
