Use Android Auto. Google listens to you a lot more, so the ads will be better focused for you. 
Sadly, it will be accepted fully, in short order. Humans are the dumbest things on the planet.

Sadly, it's all about money.
Look what's happened to You Tube. Never used to have the advertisements, now they pop up all the time unless you pay a fee to go add less.

If they plan on not allowing me to disable that function, and wish to eavesdrop on a conversation by me, I'll give them one...full of constant vulgar words and discriptions.
It will be interesting as to what ads they provide me for that.

What if you're one of those folks who sits in their car watching porn on your phone?
I use the "Brave" web browser whenever I YouTube anything. No ads but no "Youtube Channel Movies" (obviously because Brave blocks ads)

Hmmm, that is unsettling. I have already turned down several offers to trade up to a newer vehicle because I find the larger screen and integrated controls very distracting and unsafe now. I frequently turn my screen 'off' during night driving.
I think I'll speed up my restoration on my '06 F150 - no screen, manual transmission, crank up windows, no AC and tactile controls....yes, I'm that old! LOL

Note to self: When new Bronco Sport arrives, be sure to deep tint all windows.

Wow, mine was rare enough to have a touchscreen even back in 07! Something like this. Incredibly modern for the time.

I had that too. When I sold the truck, I kept that radio/gps and put the standard AM/FM radio back in.Wow, mine was rare enough to have a touchscreen even back in 07! Something like this. Incredibly modern for the time.
I still have the Radio/gps unit. It was made by Pioneer for Ford.
