It also, consequently, makes the advertisements which they show to you far less valuable. So this feature is not widely advertised.

I used to be the same, but I eventually got sick of seeing these constant requests to spend my money on whoever’s product. If I see a problem that can be solved with a product, I know tlwhere to find stores, and I’ll go look for it. I don’t need 45,000 attempts at my money in case one is what I need. So I block all ads, pointedly avoid sponsored results, and use my own brain to decide what I want, when I want it.
Plus it improves my experience on all services when the UI isn’t wasted on banners and games don’t play a video every thirty seconds. I haven’t yet figured out how to block real-world ads. Maybe XR glasses with a brand censoring mod lol
I think the idea is that you are interested in a topic, and so they show you an advertisement that says “Product A does X!” You might not think about it nor click on it, but maybe later on, you need to do X, and then you remember, “hey, Product A does X, I should check it out.” And then that maybe turns into a sale for them.
