I agree, the browser shouldn't contain ads, but an adblocker is also a basically essential extension that many of us use.

Myself included.

It's basically impossible not to these days.

Nowadays I refuse to fix anyone's computer without installing ad blockers in all installed browsers.

I'd consider it professionally irresonsible to let a non-technical user loose on the web without a good ad blocker. It's just too dangerous out there.
