Why's everyone blaming the engineers lol, pretty sure they're just doing what they're told right?

Exactly, headline should be more like "Google executives want Google engineers to make ad-blocking (near) impossible"

Isn't Google famous for giving a large amount of creative freedom to their engineers (and having a lot of dead published products as a result)? Also, Google engineers are not exactly stuck at their job with little hope of finding anything else to survive.
