Embedded webpage advertisement activated by merely scrolling

I noticed this referenced web page below has a feature that I experienced for the first time. As I scrolled through this linked article an embedded video advertisement activated (opened). The audio stopped as I scrolled past it...not as bad as a popup, but annoying as you try to read the article.

    Ya, I know. Sucks.

    I hate to sound dim (again), but which page/post has an embedded ad?

    Reply to @David_Snowball: Hi David, Sorry if I wasn't clear...this is not within MFO's website.

    I can across this while reading an article from the economist linked in my original thread.

    O.K., that's random...now it's not there...never mind.

    Reply to @bee: Thanks!

    I get a bit anxious about advertising and the prospect that stuff is sneaking in. Appreciate the clarification.
