reminds me of this scene from Idiocracy
How about those mobile ones where they gradually move in from the sides to form a border around the content until you tell them to fuck off
Only in apps from Google Play. Use InVizible Pro from F-Droid
Almost, but needs a few tweaks:
Content should be border-to-border in the 2000 panel.
Needs to be 3 lines of content in 2010 and only two lines of content in 2018.
2018 needs a slide-over autoplay video on the bottom-left of the content space.
You forgot the endless popups in the 2000s, which led to every browser integrating a popup blocker since then (and which often fail to stop actual malicious popups, no less)
Yes, in these years are a lot of pop ups, pop unders among other crap in some pages, but normally in most pages there was, apart of an ocassinal Banner not much else to justify an adblocker. But nowadays, between ads, clickbaits, cookie consent, adblocker detections and ant-adblocker, paywalls and other shit like these, you need a lot of extensions and scripts if you don't want that the page fills your browser and HD with all kind of PUPs and unwanted scripts, apart of an ad/trackerblocker. It's a cats and mouse game between companies which want to track and profile you with all kind of dirty tricks, and the user and devs continuos searching contrameasures to show them the middle finger.
