The ads are based on your search history.

OR

They have hacked the microchip in your brain and are reading your mind.

If you dont want ads tailored to you, or your every movement tracked just turn off GPS in your location services. You will lose your weather and other apps but you will be spied on less. Also cover the camera on your laptop, phone etc if you dont want it remotely accessed.

There are no "extra" ads, I just replaced the positions that were already there. 

I've given feedback to the developers about the jumping problem, hopefully they can come up with a solution. They need to stabilise the place holder with some code, and then display the changing ad within that fixed box.

The jumping is annoying, I agree.

I actually find the variety more interesting, than the one betting company that we used previously.

Please bear with me.
