Bullshit, there are other, better browsers who do not intentionally break basic security features like ad blocking. Switch to Firefox and Ublock Origin or any of the many forks it has. If you are using Chrome, Brave, or similar, you should stop using it and switch to something that isn't shit. Ads are a major attack vector for malware and scams. If you are not blocking them already , you need to start immediately!

I used to manage software that needed to be tested in all 3 major browsers every time we had an issue, and that was the only reason Chrome was even in my work PC. I moved on from that position, so bye bye Chrome

This will hopefully move more people to use Firefox again.
