Block all the ads so you never seem them, but click them all so the advertisor pays.
So the advertiser, who may not be all that bad, pays and makes Google richer? No thanks.
part of the idea is that clicking every ad presented destroys the ad system's ability to do meaningful targetting. I'm happy about that. Without the data collection and analysis performed by Google, Amazon, and Meta, advertising through them is less attractive to advertisors.
Most of the advertisors are lying garbage too. I have no sympathy for them.
