Honestly, this reminds me that using an ad-blocker is kind of problematic in the sense that you will accidentally direct people to websites that have a bunch of ads without realizing what other people are going through. I mean, obviously I wouldn't give up the ad blocker, it's just unfortunate when you realize something is way worse for most people and you didn't even notice.
