Problem with AdChoices on 6P

Hi all, I've just recently upgraded to the Nexus 6P from a Nexus 5.
I love the new phone, even though the larger size is still something I'm getting used to haha. Recently I've started noticing AdChoices everywhere I go in Chrome. While it's annoying having to scroll to get past them, i didn't really notice anything until I started getting hit by these full screen ads that sit on top of the page and block the content I'm trying to see. I also can't find a minimize or close button, the closest thing is the expand AdChoices arrow but it doesn't remove the ad.
I went back to my Nexus 5 and accessing the same page from Recent Tabs or History in Chrome does NOT show the AdChoices at all, not even the embedded ads that I need to scroll through. The Nexus 5 is still on Lollipop and rooted though, whereas the 6P is unrooted and up to date on updates.

So my question then is can I remove AdChoices from Android Chrome? Is this something that is native to Marshmallow? Is this perhaps because of an app that I installed? Also curious to know what other user's experiences are and how they combat this issue. Would rooting and AdAway solve this issue? I may reconsider rooting if that's the case.

Thanks all!
