    I'm getting stupid Google sponsored ads in searches now when I never was before on Android Browser. Adblock is going downhill.

    I use adguard and privacy badger for chrome. They work perfectly and don't pass on your data like most other adblocking software

    2: Ads which play sound. F*ck the people who add these to their websites, they're the absolute bane of anyone who listens to music while they're working.

    To add to this, sites that play videos, usually news sites. Especially annoying when you've a few tabs open and don't know where it's coming from.

    Web design has gone downhill lately, even the BBC have a big popup that takes up a third of the screen telling you the latest news story as soon as you click into the story you actually want to read.

    If you're using Chrome, a little speaker icon appears on the tab that the video is playing in.
