Just spend the 2 seconds to change your default new window / tab page to “Blank Page” if it bothers you that much. I set that in the 2000s and they've always honored it since.

The first run after an update opens a separate tab with the bullshit in it, regardless of what the start page is set to. Now this wouldn't be a problem like back in the day where updates were rare, but nowadays they're churning out updates like crazy and use these as an opportunity to get in your way.

That's what I have set as well. Still seeing VPN ads.
