Google Chrome Blocks Ads That Drains Your Battery and Data Without You Knowing

Google Chrome has released new updates dealing with irritating ads that suck too much of your battery or data. Starting in the next several months, Google will experiment on blocking all online ads that are resource-heavy or causes too much usage of devices' CPU. The search engine will provide until August for ad creators to fix their ads to give leeway during the operation.

Google Chrome no longer allows ads that suck too much battery and data

Once an ad does not follow the right guideline of Google's measurement, the ad's frame will redirect to an error page to inform users that the previous ad consumes too much battery or data on devices. For now, Google will still have 'loose hands' on battery-sucking ads out there. But when the month of August ends, Chrome seeks to make this feature more stable on all websites.
