> Chrome has already ditched adblockers on mobile nit: chrome has never had extensions (or ad blockers) on mobile (Disclosure: I work for Google)

  That's not even a nitpick. The parent got it completely wrong. If Chrome mobile never supported extensions, then it's false to claim they "ditched" them.

    They being an ad company were smart enough not to ever allow the camel to get its nose under the tent.

    From the original post, it's more like a language parsing issue - Chrome was original a desktop-only application and it had extensions. When it was ported to Android, they ditched extensions, as well as jettisoning numerous other features. Thus, not "completely wrong."
