I don't see that. Is that because I have Ad Blocker?

I sometimes see this tag when I copy/paste text from the forums into another app.

I see that when copying and pasting content from SimHQ into other apps, and while it can be a bit annoying, I understand why it's there. Lots of other sites have it too. It's so people don't just take the content that SimHQ was able to provide and use it somewhere else without at least an attempt to credit the source, and send traffic that way.

So this an issue with mobile devices? Whatever it is,
I'm not seeing anything.

It appeared on my PC even though I have AdBlocker installed.It's just a picture of USB cables.

I believe it's only when you copy text from SimHQ and paste it elsewhere. Here's what it looks like when I copy and paste just the text from my post into Notepad:

It's appended to text that is copied from SimHQ so that proper reference is included.... not spam...
