If the Google war on ad blocking meant the ad blockers accidently blocked something everyone wants its still Google fault.

Everything was fine until Google decided to change how everything works over and over again to get people to watch the awful ads they let on their platform.

Googlees don't "let" ads on their platform. Ads are the entire reason for the existence of their platform.

They could hire some people to vet the ads.

A company taking responsibility for the ads they serve? That sounds like communism to me!
