I have wanted EXACTLY this for a long time. What I want to also block are sites that serve up crappy "suggested" content from taboola and their horrible trashcan ilk. If you value me as a visitor to your site that little then to hell with you as a website. There are plenty out there that deserve me attention much more.

Adblockers like Ublock Origin already block that Taboola/Outbrain crap. Sadly Chrome Android doesn't allow for these, so I use Firefox Android, which fully allow extensions, 95% of the time when I'm on mobile.
