Re:Google’s native ad blocker for Chrome shows up in Android... by viraptor on Tuesday August 01, 2017 @06:23AM (#14899247)
There are more issues than just being unobtrusive. Ads are used to spread malware and that happens even on popular, vetted networks. For example https://www.businessinsider.com.au/android-malware-spreads-u...

Even if some simple ads could be tolerated, the distribution networks failed. Not even Google can be trusted to show approved, nice ads. They either need a massive change, or they will be blocked completely.
