Do you have a link for the Oracle consultant site? I'm intrigued ..
This is the one that comes to mind. http://www.dba-oracle.com/
Most users hate these pop-ups and cheer this move from Google. But let me add a little context to why these ads are so prevalent and why some companies view this move as Google abusing their power. If you visit to any "guide" website like TripAdviser, Yelp, etc, these days on a mobile browser, you'll notice that the sites often barely let you do anything without downloading the native app. They all but refuse to let…

Pinterest is even worse - in Google Images, images are listed but once you enter the site, you're blocked from accessing whatever you have been looking for.
I also think Google should do a better job of promoting the original source of the image, since the originator is unlikely to ever get credit.
Sometimes the original may not be able to handle the traffic.

Is that an Android thing? I have never experienced this on iOS. I didn't even know browsers could trigger vibration on mobile.
I've never experienced it in my several years as an Android user either!
Use uBlock Origin people! In Firefox on Android. Don't see any pop-up ads! I can't believe how much pain people subjective themselves to needlessly!
I wonder how much of the internet userbase, like myself, just close a site the moment a pop-up appears which takes me away from what I want to be doing. Has anyone here done any AB testing on it and have some numbers?
if they could stop showing results in GoogleNow which, once clicked, immedialtely redirect me to some kind of creepy scary vibrating ringing page telling me I've a virus on my 'NEXUS 5X - Orange SAS' that would be even better

Pop-ups asking me to please take a survey about the user experience of the website, too. Well, I was trying to actually buy something on your website, before your goddamn survey pop-up got in the way.
Also, e-commerce websites that require creation of an account to buy something. There were countless times that I had a credit card in hand, and I gave up when the stupid website required me to register a user account in order to pay and check out. Extra negative points if your account creation process requires a phone number or e-mail address verification step.
