Putting tracking on a link to my tracking settings is traditionally frowned upon, Google. (It's a c.gle link, which then redirects to Doubleclick)
And since I block Doubleclick at multiple layers ... I can't use this thing you're telling me about in your "mandatory" email notification.
Update: actual link (h/t @dmarti)
https://adssettings.google.com/partnerads
(... but even this redirects to DoubleClick)

the full set of steps is (1) remove "AI" slop (2) block search ads (3) turn off ad personalization (4) start a blocklist (5) block click tracking (5) turn off in-browser ad features -- then it's almost back to pre-enshittification
fix Google Search
Make Google usable again by removing AI slop, crappy sites, deceptive ads, and privacy/security risks.
