Websites that are involved are french news papers, french Amazon like marketplace and a french mobile provider.

I don't think you can categorise those as "distracting".

A website with unblockable ads is surely distracting. I mean, isn't the entire point of an ad to be distracting? "Instead of paying attention to what you want to pay attention to, remember that I have bridge to sell you at basement bargain rates just buy my kettle for 20 euros"
