A different kind of ads can be video overlay ads that can be closed with the X button, or column ads that cannot be closed.

Although the buttons are displayed after 5 seconds, they are already prepared and extensions can click them to close the ads quickly. Video overlay ads, and column ads, will be hidden.

説明には「フローティング ポップアップ ウィンドウ モードでも機能する」とあり、実際に導入時はうまく機能していたが、そのうち正しく機能しなくなった(ポップアップ ウィンドウ側の表示が固まり、元のページ側で動画の続きが流れるようになる)。
