News sites would start dropping ads into your feed, and currently, there would be no way to filter it out.

Right now, there’s no iOS RSS readers that will filter duplicate stories. I can’t imagine how adblocking would get implemented.

This was a solved problem in 2012. Ads are stories and can easily filtered skipped. Duplicate story checkers filter based on title/content similarity. Software available for iOS can be limited compared to windows or linux.
