AI overviews cause massive drop in search clicks
The banner is not the problem, the predatory tracking by webpages are. You can make a webpage without it no problem, my home page does not have it.

To add onto it the do-not-track header can be used to signal an opt out. There needs to be a browser wide setting that is communicated to websites without user interaction. Some German court even ruled that Linkdin IIRC has to respect DNT for that.

The banners themselves are ugly and can fill almost half the screen
Even website makers who don't use predatory tracking end up including them as a CYA tactic
