Gmail Ads and Trackers

On brave browser, almost 10 Ads and trackers are blocked while accessing my Gmail account. I do not see any difference in my email account functionality. In comparison, yandex has 4 and protonmail has 0 Ads/trackers. So, why is it even necessary to allow google to have such Ads and trackers?

So Google can make money by targeting you with more relevant ads in gmail and elsewhere on the web.
