Chrome Ad Filter: Google's upcoming Chrome browser will include advertising filters (ETA sometime early 2018) but said to be more of a quality assurance feature, akin to existing tools in Chrome that prevent pop-ups from spawning in excess, and that warn users when they might be exposed to content that could harm their devices.
Instead of an ad “blocker "Google is referring to the feature as an ad “filter," according to
The Wall Street Journal [wsj.com] since it will still allow ads to be displayed on pages that meet the right requirements. The blocker will work on both desktop and mobile. Those "right requirements" may be determined, at least in part, by the quality assurances set forth by
The Initial Better Ads Standards [betterads.org].
