Thank you for your follow up.
Ad partner test score - F.

Advertising so invasive and upsetting that it chases users away is very undesirable. Marketing 101.

Download uBlock Origin Lite (uBOL) from the App Store & give it a spin.

You're using Google Chrome on an Android? I was primarily referencing/referring to those on an iPhone w/ Safari. Surprised uBOL isn't available for and Android + Chrome (well, on the second thought - maybe I'm "not" surprised. Again, this is part of the deal with advertisements (in particular) but it's likened to how a developer writes code. Most code is highly specific to (1) the OS, (2) the OS version & (3) the Browser. Sort of like writing a Mobile App version for a website. Highly dependent on OS, OS version & Browser.
