All ad networks are malware distribution networks.
Adblock is the new antivirus.
I heard adblock was sold to advertising interests, and some of the creators that were against selling it made the content blocker ublockorigin, which works better than adblock ever did. Undetectable by websites too unlike adblockers.
Adblock the concept, not Adblock the named software browser extension.
People should currently be using ublockorigin as you say.
Is that why a lot of people still don’t use it?
