Okay, all those new blocks are in place. I'll be interested to hear if people still get the mobile redirect after, say, 6:30pm.
Right now everything seems to be pointing towards this being an ongoing net-wide 'attack' against mobile browsers. Originating in or about games on Facebook, or (more likely) mobile ad code in games on Facebook (and games that have mobile apps that are also on Facebook). Which is not to say FB is the culprit, it's (if this is all true, but there's a substantial amount of evidence to support this) malicious code inside those mobile ads somewhere. IF this is true, clearing the cookies in your mobile browser would seem to resolve the issue, at least until you're exposed to the bad code again. Not knowing exactly where that code is, obviously I can't speak to how to avoid it. People in phone browsers (tablets don't seem to be hit) everywhere are getting hit with it. I see angry threads on everywhere from IGN, to Mac forums, sports sites, Google, Apple, etc. As above, the good news there is it's so widespread that the external discussions provide another layer of insight into the problem, and hopefully how it can be properly addressed.
For the meantime, I've done what I can (for the moment) here. I've firebombed our mobile ads with our partners, I've put blanket domain blocks in place, and I'll keep looking into this so I can advise if someone comes up with a solution.
