How do I prevent the webpage from jumping to an ad in the middle of the article?

I am reading an article which after a few seconds of scrolling down, starts to scroll by itself to the nearest playing ad, which may be at the very top of the web page, or down below towards an 'embedded' ad (not a programmer) in the article itself.

No ads here, but I run an adblocker. But at the halfway point of that articles I did get a "promo slide-down" at top of the content area for "READ MORE FROM VANITY FAIR".

I recommend uBlock Origin to block ads. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/
