Outside of Adsense, the great majority of ads I see are ugly Flash banners advertising weight-loss treatments with dubiously verified effectiveness. I don't think it is an assumption, I think it is an observation.
As to the data they collected, that doesn't seem very surprising at all. Firefox users like their Adblock, and Chrome users mostly complain that they don't have Adblock yet.
