Many of us really want to know is are the Programmatic ads going to be removed so we can atleast feel safe enough to try out the new ad feature? "Programmatic ads" are as you guys have suggested not under Wikia's control. The ads in question are the type that attack pc's with malware and ransomeware. Until then, ad block will stay on. Unless you want to send me $650 or so for a new computer first.
