Try updating to latest iOS. I used to have this problem, but it has gone away if late.

It's poisoned ads. You can't fix it because the problem is with the websites, not with your phone.

Sounds like you are using iOS since you mention safari.

Go into settings -> privacy

Scroll down to the bottom and go into advertising, turn on limited ad tracking and reset your advertising ID.

This will stop you from getting a lot of targeted ads and some of those pop ups.

These stopped happening to me a few weeks ago. Completely stopped.

The only activity I can correlate to that, is that I stopped using google around the same time and went to duckduckgo.

Yeah. At one point it was making td almost unusable. But it's completely stopped for about a month now.

I have a Samsung Galaxy s8+, with Android fully upgraded. I still get those. Not so much in td anymore. But those redirects are everywhere.
