You might be able to block the element on the page using uBlock
Origin, but unfortunately that type of ad is very hard to remove. If
you have to interact with it is harder to select using uBlock's
interface.

You can also use Greasemonkey to block more invasive ads, but I never
had much luck with that. It's designed to do more than filter
background content.

I feel like I need to ask whether or not you've done something like
disable cookies. I'd not suggest doing that, at most delete all of
them when you close your browser session. It's impossible to use most
pages without having cookies enabled (this makes automating things
with web libraries infuriating).
