If only, I know so many people who don't bother with adblocking at all. I honestly have no idea how they use the Internet without going mad
The way people talk about people who don't block ads is so funny.
I understand and respect the reasons people choose to use blockers, but ads honestly just aren't that problematic for me in practice and are easy to avoid and ignore.
Ads are probably actually not that bad. But to me the massive stalking is unacceptable. So, uBO FTW!
Of course; I'm just a lot more worried about the systemic problems of mass surveillance than any practical risk to me individially.
