@BEN_FAWKES @Rohit_M @MicrosoftX There are some site permissions which never work.
When I tried Ads permission blocked on a NDTV it with tracking prevention off and lots of ads, it wasn't blocking any of the ads. Plus the video also started playing.
But when I tried to highlight ads using "Highlight ad frames" in rendering tab, it highlighted all visible ads with red color. This means it was successfully able to detect all ads.
And when I tried to block ads using "Force block in developer preferences", it really blocked all ads. But this permission resets after we close the developer tool.
I highly doubt when you people have the built-in ad blocker and a site settings toggle button as in the first screenshot, why doesn't it work? And we won't be needing any more ad-blockers which consume a lot of CPU and memory.
I know this is going to hurt monetization but this can be disabled by default and enabled as people select to block ads in site settings. This would be the best approach.
