That's interesting, Where do you see relevant Google Ads while shopping; is it on some product review blogs?

Did you check the 'Shopping' tab of Google search?

One example I've run into...

When you google search for something (like say a product or service that you want to purchase), you'll see a couple ads at the top of the results.

Pi-hole usually prevents most ads from even displaying, but those always show up. If the ad was useful and you want to click through, it will generally block the request. I think the click through sends you to doubleclick or something.

I've never disabled pi-hole in that situation, but there have been times when it was an annoyance because the ad was actually relevant.

Understood, I think Google features those products in the shopping tab. But the results may vary depending upon the country you're in as I think they ran into some trouble for that in EU.
