Google Chrome 71 will prohibit websites from displaying any abusive ads

Google Chrome announced the next new program on its official blog: The Google Chrome 71 version, which will release in December, will ban websites from displaying any invasive ads.

These invasive advertisements refer to those that actually pretend to download the application by masquerading the play button and pop up multiple advertisement pop-ups without user confirmation.

Usually, these kinds of advertisements are irregular websites. For example, many small movie websites disguise and play the actual download of so-called poisonous players.

Continue to enhance the ad blocking of Google Chrome:

Previously, Google Chrome has begun to crack down on various malicious pop-up ads, but statistics have found that Google Chrome has not blocked more than half of malicious ads.

Google Analytics found that almost all of these sites involve bad or misleading ads, and these types of ads are extremely invasive to visitors.

Ads that will be automatically blocked include:

1. Disguise the play button or the fast-forward button or the next set button or the close button or the navigation button to download the installation package automatically or pop up the advertisement page;

2. Open the website to pop up fraudulent advertising; the most typical is that many recent fraudulent web pages pretend to be Microsoft technical support and claim that the computer has a virus, etc.;

3. Hide certain ad elements and click on some blank areas without the user’s knowledge, then trigger the ad code and pop up multiple ad popups;

4. Open the webpage to pop up numerous advertisement windows immediately or pop up multiple advertisement windows when the user does not click any button, such as normal browsing;

5. Advertising content or page elements claim that the user computer has malware that needs to install other software for anti-virus, which is also a false advertisement.

Google Chrome also offers the option for users to accept infringing ads on the site, although it is estimated that no users will actively set this up unless it is a webmaster.

For users who need to exclude and receive malicious ads, you can add exception sites in Google Chrome Settings – Advanced Settings – Content Settings – Ad Settings.
