If run company like Google that depends on Advertising Adblock is something you take very seriously. Until recently Adblock plus was doing great gob blocking Google ads, pop-up and pretty much all the advertising, however I have been noticing that Adblock no longer blocks Google ads so I did some research and this is what I found:
"AdblockPlus says this fee is about helping it to maintain its filter list, which also whitelists some small websites and blogs for free, in addition to charging those larger companies like Google that participate. But it’s easy to see Google and others buying the right to put ads in front of web-browsing users, with Adblock Plus essentially acting as a gatekeeper meting out access to that sizeable chunk of consumers. Which gives Adblock a lot of power, and companies like Google that can pay a sizeable advantage over mid-sized competitors who can’t."
