I think you can? https://contributor.google.com . Not that I’ve tried it - I’m not allowed to in the UK.

Contributor is only for sites that use Google's ad products. I don't think it works in Search.

Essentially, it's a way for a site's users to bid for its ad spots. If you bid more than the advertisers, you don't have to see the ads.

It's quite a clever idea really, but I don't think it has much uptake from publishers.

I use it and it probably covers about 65-75% of ads I see, and almost 100% on news websites. I've also seen it work in apps.

It's too bad there wasn't some way to have it cross over networks too.

I get this error when I try to sign-up : Error fetching data. Please try again later.

They have adds on Google Search? I swear my mind automatically just remove them subconsciously.

Also you could just use an add block

That's a (rather quickly) learned behavior called banner blindness. :) [1] People get used to the locations where ads are placed on web pages and also the kind of look that ads have (flashy, colorful, animation, tiny picture with some text, etc., as some examples) and don't even look at them (these have been confirmed by eye tracking studies a long time ago).
