Announcement 1: We are conducting a community beta test to eliminate inappropriate ads from GIGAZINE and make it healthier. First, we invited some of the people who expressed their cooperation in the reader survey, and we are steadily making the ads healthier behind the scenes. If you are currently saying 'I haven't been invited to the beta test!', please report the inappropriate ads from ' Other inquiries ' at the bottom of GIGAZINE and we will check and respond, so we would appreciate your cooperation!

When reporting inappropriate ads through 'Other inquiries,' please include the 'URL of the ad's link' in your report to ensure that we can block the ad smoothly.
