Bullshit, there are other, better browsers who do not intentionally break basic security features like ad blocking. Switch to Firefox and Ublock Origin or any of the many forks it has.

If you are using Chrome, Brave, or similar, you should stop using it and switch to something that isn't shit. Ads are a major attack vector for malware and scams. If you are not blocking them already , you need to start immediately!

I wish people would start suggesting adnauseam. It’s basically ublock, but also silently clicks every link in the page tj poison the data. I have been using it for ages.
