The entire world suffers from a shortage of  individuals with intellectual capacities that are needed to take the world forward.

''Chrome literally exists to protect Google's advertising business,'' said Mark Mayn, a vice president at Mozilla, the company behind the web browser Firefox, a competitor to Chrome.

''Google has done a tremendous amount of stuff - their products are web-based - and probably most of it positive, but what we've also seen, obviously, is a tremendous centralization.

The Update to Chrome, however, introduced last month, is not a universal ad-blocker, the company insisted, but a filter.

The Electronics Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit digital rights organization, issued a statement one Friday that said the Google Chrome update :

''Fails to address the larger problem of tracking and privacy violations'' on the web. It also criticized  Google and the Coalition for Better Ads, calling it a trade group that ''lacks a consumer voice''.

''Google exploiting its browser dominance to shape the conditions of the advertising market raises some concerns,''  the foundation said.

It took some time for Adblock Plus, which makes popular ad-blocking software that can be installed on Google Chrome, to figure out which types of ads, exactly, Google would be filtering, according to a company spokesman, Ben Williams.

Once Adblock Plus had a firm idea, it determined that the update will not risk losing the interest of the tens of millions of people who use its ad-blocking software.

Chrome will not block ads that run before videos on sites like the Google owned YouTube, for example.

Such ads, which can be blocked by Adblock Plus, lay outside the scope of the recommendations made by the  Coalition for Better Ads.

''It's laudable, what they're doing, getting rid of the worst of the worst formats.''  Mr. Williams said,  ''but I don't think it will cause people not to download ad blockers or to uninstall them.

Adblock Plus makes money, however, by accepting payments from major companies to ''white-list'' them - those who pay, that is, do not get blocked.

Among those paying for this kind of treatment :  Google.

Likewise, Mozilla , which is paid by Google for traffic sent to its search engine through  Firefox, depends on the company for much of its revenue.

Scott Spencer, a director of product management at Google, said the company is sensitive to  consumers' growing awareness of its power.

''Google is not neutral when it comes to the open web,'' he said.

''We're a search company, we want to ensure that there is a healthy and sustainable  web for people to be searching and getting information from. We're also obviously an ad-serving company.''

He framed Chrome's ad filter as the latest in a series of positive innovations, spanning back to the  pop-up ad blocker in its original incarnation a decade ago and including more recent security protections against scams and malware.

Mr. Spencer compared the web to a series of roads crowded by people trying to get to work.

''At some point someone has the idea that we need to put in some traffic lights,'' Mr. Spencer said. ''Nobody likes waiting for the light, but everyone appreciates not getting stuck in the traffic.''

Google is in a position to install and operate the traffics - with outside input, of course.

It also raises the question about what sort of actor Google is on the web. Is it a government?  A budding monopoly? A reluctant leader? All three?

''We don't want to be doing this alone,'' Mr. Spencer said.

''We understand the concerns that exist, and we want to make sure that other voices have a channel and are being heard.''

With respectful dedication to the Students, Professors and Teachers of the world. See Ya all  register on !WOW! - the World Students Society and Twitter - !E-WOW! - the Ecosystem 2011:
