Hmm, weird. Using an ad-blocker is basic security advice at this point because Google and other ad companies don't vet their advertisers properly, so malware or phishing often makes its way into ads. But yes, believe Google's lies and stop using an ad-blocker for "security reasons". Honestly, these shitty big tech corporations should just go fuck themselves.
They mean ad revenue security
Yeah that's the only kind of security they care about. Fuck Big Tech! And most importantly, stop using their garbage services.
