Description
Previously, these signatures were used for Google Admob detection (there could be others as well but I don't know since I haven't found public VCS):
```
com.google.ads.|com.google.android.gms.ads.
```
But recently these have been changed to the following:
```
com.google.ads.|com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView|com.google.android.gms.ads.AdRequest|com.google.android.gms.ads.mediation|com.google.android.gms.ads.doubleclick
```
Which means classes such as `com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity` are skipped from scanning.
Previous static scan listed 290 classes for an app called **Battery Bar Free** and how it lists only 61.

Research direction
Start by locating the Google AdMob detection signatures in the Python codebase and compare the current patterns with those listed in this issue. Verify the change against the Battery Bar Free example or another scan, and consider the issue done when classes such as com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity are no longer skipped.
