Since Chrome on Android doesn't allow addons I think it's safe to say websites have a good decade or so poking us in the eye with pop up ads.
I'm guessing it will take at least a decade before Firefox or some alternative browser gains any traction on mobile.
- ScroogeMcDoug 10y agoThe mobile ad market is proof enough that the ad industry as a whole is terrible. Blocking ads on iOS and Android is harder for the average user than on Desktop, and it's abused to a ridiculous degree. Popups, redirects, trying to trick users into installing malicious apps, etc. The ad industry had a second chance with mobile, and they showed they couldn't control themselves.
