blocking ads without third-party extensions.

Actually there is a built in ads blocker in the last 2 versions of Canary.. Version 78.0.262.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)..
How well it works I don't know as I've not tested it out yet...
Also note that in this next picture there are no options to "add" sites to the blocked list nore to the "allowed" list...
At least I've got it in my version.. could be one of those, chosen few...

I believe this is not any special Microsoft development and just the 'adblock' that is built into chrome by google. I use quotation marks since it is an advertising (Google) friendly service that aims to only optimise advertising by ensure ads fit certain guidelines and doesn't tend to block anything.
