The company plans to extend this ability to control ads on YouTube and Gmail on a personalized basis. Any user's command to "mute" a reminder ad will last for 90 days and will be valid for all the devices of the user with whom the Google Account is linked.

But Google, according to British media, has made it clear that the new tool will not apply to as many corporate and service websites do not use its own advertising platform (Facebook, Amazon, etc.), so the user will not easily get away from the advertisements.
