I think the permission screen at install is enough. Common sense will still be the best defense. Trust all the permissions or none of them. I'm not going to believe that an app would only try to steal from me some of the time or in only one way.
Developers could start checking permissions at run time. If denied a permission, the app would close. Then we're right back where we started. Allowing all requested permissions to use an app, or none of them.
Not all ads are google adverts. Airpush comes to mind as one that's not. Displayed ads are often just custom webviews loading content from some api.

It would be nice if "full internet access" and "google advertisments" were seperate permissions because I often block internet access
