But is everyone really using ad-blockers? I thought it was obvious, like you, I mean, why wouldn't people use ad-blockers and keep living inside a garbage typhoon? Then, I saw some "studies" [1] saying the total of users relying on ad-blockers is ridiculous, like not even 1/5. It's baffling but seems like most people are still struggling against pop-ups.

(If this study lies, what wouldn't surprised me to the slightest, it would be by inflating the numbers, considering they sell counter-measures.)

- pavlov 8y agoMost people also don't understand the difference between a URL and a Google search. Installing an ad blocker is way beyond their understanding of how the web works.
