Google to block all foreign ads, coming soon
  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    First step already being implemented and called "blocking heavy ads"

    This change introduces a feature that unloads ad iframes that have been detected to use an egregious amount of system resources. This reuses the quiet safebrowsing interstitial UX, which gets loaded into the ad iframe.

    This intervention unloads ads that are in the .1% of bandwidth usage, .1% of CPU usage per minute, and .1% of overall CPU time. The current numbers are 4MB network and 60 seconds CPU, but may be changed as more data is available.

    Next step will put the bar lower.

    And next step will wipe out 80% of all foreign and local ads that are "not safe" aka provided by Alphabet.

    pretty ingenious endgame. to move all ads to google only. that and the DNS over http to remove ICANN to further block what they deem not acceptable to their roadmap, aka world domination. maybe they will create their own cryptocurrency. that way, the ads and chrome do data mining. genuis!

    You forget one thing - they now also control 90% of HTTPs certificates (almost all free certificates outside CHina are provided by Alphabet via LetsEncrypt).
