Besides Chrome, Google’s Privacy Sandbox initiative is on Android to let apps show you relevant ads in a more private manner. The beta started earlier this year, and Google is now prompting more users about it with new Ad privacy settings.

See, this is what I think people get wrong about ad tech: the problem are not the ads themselves, but the tracking. I'm completely fine with ads, as long as I'm not tracked by their provider

I've gone so long without ads I am unaware of the concept of being fine with ads. It's too unfamiliar an experience now.

Internet ads that don't involve tracking are a thing of the past, so not worth discussing non-tracked ads as a middle ground.

Ads = tracking.

Unfortunately you're right
