Except this isn't 100% true.

Google continues to add more ads per page, despite people complaining
Netflix now has ads even in paid tiers. Their subscribers count grew
YouTube continues to push ads even to the point of aggressive blocking ad blockers

There isn't a single platform that has reduced the number of ads it serves.

Businesses have learned that the majority of users will take it.

All of those platforms have sources of revenue besides ads.
