=== Heavy Ad Intervention===
The Google Chrome Browser installs the feature to protect against resource-intensive ads since August 2020 from version 85 and above. The Chrome mechanism sets '''limits''' for ad resources (CPU load / loaded MB) and '''removes''' ads from the page that exceed these limits.

| style="height:50px; width:850px; text-align:left;font-size:16px" | An ad is considered heavy in terms of the loaded MB if the user '''has not previously interacted with it''' and '''the ad uses more than 4 MB network bandwidth''' (e.g., auto-initiated loading of streaming content without user clicks). Furthermore, the '''CPU demand''' when using the main thread by ad scripting can also be relevant for the removal by the browser (see information for sound and animation on TSpecs pages)

==Initial file load (initial load) ==
==Loading phases==
When the LEAN guidelines and the New Ad Portfolio were published by the IAB Tech Lab, the concept of initial load/subload was introduced to replace the previous “polite download”. This concept provides for the division of the total file size into an initial and a subsequently loaded part. Loading of the advertising content is initially limited to the initial part in order to optimise the loading times of the webpages and to boost user awareness. The individual specifications define which ad formats permit a subload. '''Initial file load is obligatory for all ad formats.'''
