I've never used and adblocker for slightly different reasons. First, I'm kind of fascinated by ads, from Google's ads to the obnoxious fake news reports about the latest miracle cure.
The other reason I don't block ads is that most of them just don't get in the way of what I'm doing. If I'm on a web site where they have ads I disapprove of or make the site difficult to use, I leave that site.
It's my way of voting with my feet about those ads and that site's practices. Of course, there also seems to be a strong correlation between the quality of the content and the quality of the ads, so I usually end up not reading something that's of low value anyway.
