Google is changing Chrome to extend your phone's battery life

Good news! Google is going to change Chrome on your mobile to extend the life of your battery on your cell phone and also reduce data consumption. Black magic comes from something very simple: block ads from web pages that consume resources like a child eats chocolate chip cookies. The future Chrome for mobile will not let ads that use a disproportionate amount of system resources run in your browser. As part of its audit of Internet ads, Google has found a small percentage that secretly uses the data network, consuming bandwidth and leaving your cell phone battery dry. The company from Mountain View, California, as soon as the type of ads are poorly programmed and its lack of optimization causes users to have a bad experience. To have a deletion problem, Google as soon as a limit is imposed on system resources that any ad prompts you cellular. Chrome will restrict how much battery, how much processor time, and how much bandwidth of your data connection can be used by any one ad. When you hit the Set limit, Google disconnects and removes the ad entirely.

Terrible bad blocked ads

The limits are going to be pretty tight: 4MB of red data or 15 seconds of CPU usage in a 30 or 60 second processor cycle. According to Google, where only 0.3% of excess is limited, the impact is gigantic on a planetary level: ridiculous consumption consumed and 28% of CPU power used in consumption and 27% of data consumable by ads. This is why Google has taken action on the matter - although logically, being a company that still survives on ads, they are not going to cut most of them like you can with Safari, Edge, Mozilla or Opera. The company says it will start blocking these heavy ads in the coming months. His goal is to include this saving feature in the version of Chrome that will be released at the end of August. If there's a mix of schedules, we'll be able to enjoy a better experience and more battery life before the end of the year (where the alternative is to trash Chrome and use a competing browser).
