This is such an easy optimization that Google has to have tried it and seen their ad revenue fall. "Permanently remove this site from search results" seems like the absolute easiest "personalization" to implement.

But what will Google do if users end up banning the majority of websites with Google Ads and/or analytics? The reason Google doesn't fight SEO spam (and just generally annoying/obnoxious behavior such as paywalls) more aggressively is because it doesn't want to bite the hand that feeds - all these spammy sites have ads or analytics that benefit Google.
