Went to Bulbapedia to check a stupid article a friend linked me to and got a pop-up for "naughty dating".

Lovely ads they run on a site for kids.

>not using adblock
if you actually care about other people, then just get rid of ads on bulba and ignore on other sites

That's implying that an 8 year old kid knows about AdBlock though.

The fact they sold out to corporations who run these ads is bad enough.

Not to my knowledge. Curse just runs one of their many ads and has their insights on it.

The domain is still registered to the CEO of havaMedia.

Google gives wikis priority which is why Bulbapedia appears ahead of Serebii in most searches. Kids who google a Pokémon's name would be more likely to follow the first link.

I don't even have adblock but I rarely see ads on bulbapedo. I'm also not logged in to a google+ account. C-could that be the reason why?

I have adblock on my computer, so no problems there, but on my tablet whenever I check Bulbapedia I get these really annoying ads that straight-up force you to go to the app store or whatever. There is no option to refuse.

If you're a responsible parent, you will install adblock on any computer your child is using.
