The article is AdGuard centric but it sheds light on the whole process where Google suddenly decided to ban ad blockers.
There is no need for an actual installed adblocker. You can simply change system wide DNS to block ads. You can really use any DNS you choose, but I’d suggest mullvads DNS.

Look for “private DNS” on your phone, or switch it on your browser if on desktop.
I’ve been using Mullvad for 2 years and only just now realized I could turns ads off on my phone with a literal click of a button.
IIRC the ad blocker toggles for Mullvad VPN on android were added this year.
