Google Chrome will block resource-heavy ads starting August
#1
Quote: The Google Chrome web browser will start unloading ad iframes using too many system resources without the user's knowledge starting with the stable release coming near the end of August.

Chrome will target ads that drain device resources like battery, network data, and CPU processing power, such as those designed to mine for cryptocurrency known as being resource hogs that will drain battery life and network bandwidth.

"In order to save our users’ batteries and data plans, and provide them with a good experience on the web, Chrome will limit the resources a display ad can use before the user interacts with the ad," Chrome Product Manager Marshall Vale said.
'When an ad reaches its limit, the ad's frame will navigate to an error page, informing the user that the ad has used too many resources."
