MODERATORS
Name one demographic immune to internet advertisements
The demographic that used to rely on DNS/hosts.txt-based ad blockers and then switched to more integrated solutions like NoScript, uBlock, or uMatrix.
Seeing ads (especially given how aggressive and ubiquitous they've got) is now just low key upsetting. All that bandwidth and processing power for distracting me while I'm trying to find something.
I remember seeing a auto-playing video once on mobile, checking my data and it just ate 2MB of my 100MB monthly plan. Fuck, I was so angry, I blocked the entire site.
Millennials grew up at a time where all internet ads were scams/viruses.
They used to be and they still are
Not completely immune, but I imagine there's a non-zero amount of people in the adblocking demographic who are immune to Internet ads specifically.
