Chrome Didn't Like This Ad

This ad used too many resources for your device, so Chrome removed it.

Well! I have never had that come up before & my ad blocker is off for OFC.

“This intervention unloads ads that are in the .1% of bandwidth usage, .1% of CPU usage per minute, and .1% of overall CPU time. The current numbers are 4MB network and 60 seconds CPU, but may be changed as more data is available.”

When this happens, Chrome will find the ad’s iframe and unload the ad’s content, and then use the same technology that’s behind the Safe Browsing errors to show a custom message instead of the resource-intensive ad.

Some sites are bleeding awful now for ads … the Daily Mail for one. You end up squinting through a pillar box gap between adverts and videos just to read the news . I’m amazed my old chunk of microchips can still handle it.

Thanks Omah.

Now I am forever going to wonder what the darn ad was about. :grinning:
