I took the Chrome statement at face value: if I would switch to Chrome I would be able to better control/limit advertisements via pop-up blocker settings and other such things.
I just realized this last week that I have understood it incorrectly.
What they are saying is that if I switch to Chrome I will stop seeing their annoying ad for Chrome.

Have you been using Internet Explorer this whole time?
