"Adblock users in the US are 1.5x as likely to have a bachelor’s degree than the average American adult, increasing to 3x as likely among 18-24 year olds. Pronounced adblock usage among college-age respondents points to campuses as a major vector for adblock adoption."

Personally, I think being online without ad-blockers, VPN, and AV is like having public, unprotected sex with strangers.
