Hey Guardian, stop schlepping adware

I’ve talked before about the problems of doing business with some third party ad networks. Unfortunately, the folks over the Guardian signed up with one and the result is Zango!

It’s live right now, you can see it by going to any number of places on guardian.co.uk, including this site and refreshing your browser. After a while, you’ll get an ad that looks like this:

Zangoad_0001

It’s an ad placed by Fastclick.

Nice, eh?
