I agree to the point that I can't imagine using the internet without uBlock installed.

Absolute true.If you are reading this, i want to say BIG thank you mr Raymond!
I don’t install anything on my work computer that I can’t say 100% is used for work so I could never justify uBlock. It does make a HUGE difference. The web without it is a giant mess.
It's easy to justify as a security measure, given the amount of malicious ads trying to serve up exploits.
Maybe they don't browse the web either, I mean... unless it's 100% justified for work...
MSDN used to be on the web and more updated than the CD-ROMS they mailed out for subscribers.
It is the help program of Visual Studio and other apps.
Managers would check http://msn.microsoft.com/ which had their stocks in it.
I only used the web for work, nothing else. I didn't use my company email for newsgroups and website signups I used my Hotmail account instead that kept the spam there.
Yeah I work from home and have a personal device on my desk. I wouldn’t even check the weather on my office device!
My company installs uBlock on all laptops by default
Same here! I was pleasantly surprised when they set me up and it was already there.
Same. They do it as a security measure.

My company blocks addons on Chrome so I browse non-internal sites on Firefox just for uBlock.
Sadly on iOS there is no ublock

Reader mode is good though, when available
I've had decent luck with Blokada
The nice thing is that it's open source
