Do you mean regulating your own focus in face of ads? Because it does not get better. As you begin to adapt to them, the ads change. I find it intolerable that every high-end device comes with less control and more ads than ever before. Therefore I no longer buy such devices. I am happy on my barebones Linux desktop and my second-hand Android phone that is not logged into anything - because I have control. |

Quite the opposite. I have really poor ability to tune them out, especially any audio portions. Once in front of me, they get under my skin easily and this isn't something I feel comfortable trying to just accept, despite how much "easier" it'd make things.

Agreed 100%, thus why zero tolerance is the only permissible option for me.
Here is a wager I don't wanna win: the "apps are constantly force-updated" world merges with the marketing world so that downtime is filled with ads. It's devilishly perfect: you're eagerly waiting to use the thing, so you're already a captive audience.
