I used to not run an ad block. I figured the ads didn't bother me so why bother?
Then I encountered a banner ad that screamed "HELLOOOOOOOOOO" anytime the mouse went over it and I couldn't download an ad blocker fast enough.
Advertising companies will do anything they can to annoy the shit out of you, then act like people running ad blockers are the problem.
Wow! Pranks from 2004 are ads in 2024.
