MacBook Pro (Ventura 13.3.1) Can't seem to get the slow motion, rise from the bottom of screen, full width ads from Google to stop. This is making use of the computer a miserable experience! How can these irritating google ads be stopped?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.3

I don't know what some of these website owners are thinking. Popup ads, slide-over ads, ads that take up the whole screen... it makes them utterly useless.
Actually I do know what they're thinking. Merely loading those pages causes ad revenue to accrue to them. That's all they care about. Your Mac is just an ATM to them.

Ok, thanks for the additional information. The solution is as I originally wrote: don't patronize that website. Change your home page. Apparently they don't care about losing you as a customer, so why should you care about them?
Dump it.
I know how to set a Home Page. I do not want the invasive Google Ad popping up when using Safari. If this issue is just related to a page I have used for twenty years without issue I will just dump it. My concern was this popup thing was an issue with my computer getting something new in it that was allowing the popups.
Yeah, try going to a car dealership website. Stuff is popping up and sliding over all the time, repeatedly, even after closing them repeatedly. "Click here to see our latest deal", "click here to chat with a representative", etc. and some expand if your mouse happens to pass over them. You can barely use the sites.
I've given up using Safari on my phone. I can't see past all the trash.
Changing Safari's Home Page is simple enough: Change your homepage in Safari on Mac - Apple Support. Are you unable to do that? I'm not sure what the problem is.
Don't patronize those sites.
They is new today and popping up on my home page. Is this issue site specific?
Your home page... implying you are its developer? If you accept revenue from Google Adsense then find another way of monetizing your web page.
Home page: Settings > General. Page is not mine. The ads are site specific? The page I have selected has started monetizing the site?
Thanks for being patient! And THANKS for the helpful answer! They will become history within the next five minutes.
Agree. Greed
Safari > popup ads > blocked. But Google keeps showing up full width bottom of the screen.
