Is there a way to disable it on mobile? I have not seen anything yet.

It's not on mobile yet, it's only on specific websites, and as I understand it, it doesn't even do anything unless you click an ad.

Which is completely different from Chrome's system, which sends information about you to websites regardless - and they haven't even fenced off third-party cookies yet!
