If I recall you still can through ADB, but it's a pain and they started locking that down too. Ad blocking VPN (at least the one I tried) didn't work.
There was a big update about a year ago that very clearly sent the message "this device will show what we want you to see."
Ah, that doesn't shock me. Yeah I left when they started like disabling custom launchers or something, and I realized getting a Google TV would be easier than getting around that restriction.
