KMB is right that Google is probably playing reverse psychology on this and hoping users would rather mute the ads they don't like than rely on ad blockers. Either way, this helps Google optimize ad serving based on user preference. Ad blockers have been hurting free and paid ad markets for awhile now.

I am glad we are cluttering up the creatives now with even more options which are, well, redundant and misleading to say the least. The "X" to me and many others who have used computers would imply that I am closing out the creative, it is gone, I will no longer see that creative box. But in this case, it is just a matter of opting out of a-specific-campaign. The OBA compliance icon atleast denotes additional information, why create a new standard now Google? Just to show some kind of "innovation"? This just annoys me unless I am totally out of whack in understanding what Google just introduced... Wow, thanks for posting this.

It makes complete sense to me that the user gets the opportunity to retarget an ad - this should provide valuable information to the advertisers and allow for better targeting in the future it fits with the view that some people have that the future of the web will involve people having more say in what they get exposed to.
