What I'm talking about is the kind of shit like "Hey we see you're logging in from a mobile device, tap here to download our stupid fucking app that's just a wrapper for our mobile site!" that pops up because reasons.
Oh, yeah, those are a pain in the ass, too. I wouldn't mind the pop-up fields so much, since like you said they are a direct result of user actions, but the always function oddly. Sometimes zooming in on them causes them to jump off screen like they're center justified or some such thing. I'd much rather be sent to a new page with a field set on the page.
Yeah, I don't mind those, when I've made a conscious choice to use the desktop skin instead of the mobile (like I do here). In a mobile version, that's unacceptable.
