I feel that Google is harming themselves (as discussed in another thread) by increasing the ad content above the fold related to search.  I&#x27;m not sure how they will integrate even &quot;recent&quot; news into results without adjusting things.<p>That said, I think it&#x27;s a good idea to reduce the overhead of mobile news pages.  However so many of the clickbait sites are too heavy for mobile to be useful.  On the occasion I see something interesting, and click on it, a lot of the time the page is barely responsive, and I&#x27;m on a relatively fast device.<p>I feel like it&#x27;s time to start enforcing better standards on the advertisers in order to improve the usability.  This is a large part of why people lean towards captive apps on mobile.
