Not impossible. Will take this opportunity to remind people of the ad blocker that google censored from their web store: https://adnauseam.io/

This thing clicks ads for you so that parasites can't use data for anything meaningful. Check it out!

Surely all that does is make Google more money?

But it dilutes the value of ads in the long run giving 0 conversion (or whatever stupid term is appropriate). They took their shitty stand by blocking this adblocker specifically, surely there's something about it others don't have.

It could really be 'malware' of course, but my money's on the other possibility.

if it did profit them in the long run, they would not block it.
