I'm not talking about a summarizer, I'm talking about a classifier. It just needs to identify which parts of the page are advertising and which are not.

The point of such a tool is that it would read the web page in exactly the same way that a human would, so using trickery like pre-rendered images of text or funky unicode wouldn't really change anything. If a human can read it then so can the AI.

That could be useful, if ads get to the point where removing their elements manually is no longer possible. I don't think that'll happen for a while though, as long as were still using HTML and Javascript which downloads and runs pages locally inside of our browsers.
