Why Is Google Blocking This Ad-Blocker on Chrome?

&gt; The issue may be that it works a little differently than your standard ad-blocker does: instead of just blocking the advertisements and trackers from rendering on any site you view, it also virtually “clicks” on them — all of them.<p>Oh, so it&#x27;s click fraud. Yaay. I think as tech people we&#x27;re so obsessed by our ability to do things we don&#x27;t consider whether we should.

Interesting comment here (in one of the reviews for this addon for firefox): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;adnauseam&#x2F;reviews&#x2F;763934&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;adnauseam&#x2F;rev...</a><p><i>If you have a YouTube channel (s) and your logged in to that channel it will get your channel suspended for Violation of TOU #4 Section H</i><p>Google really doesn&#x27;t like this one..

Because it fundamentally breaks their advertising model?

Google simply does not want any competition on the ad market.
