I would note that ads are a source of poor performance, and vectors for infection and compromise of a system through realistic misleading dialogs and outright exploitation of vulnerabilities.
I have had my parents fall victim to viruses and get scammed out of money due to advertisements on purportedly legitimate websites.
If a website doesn't work due to an ad blocker, my parents don't need to visit it.
Ah, how the turn tables.
