That doesn't stop you from using a local proxy to filter ad network traffic, like what Adblock Plus does on android. Adblock Plus was removed from the play store in 2013 [0].
That being said there are other browsers on android that either support extensions (like firefox) or have an adblocker built in.

- saiya-jin 9y agoThis made me switch to firefox in android as my default and only browser a year ago, can't recommend enough. What is this obsession with Chrome anyway? I am a software dev (true, not really frontend these days anymore) and I can't tell the difference (apart from desktop Chrome taking much more memory due to segregated processes)
