Over a decade ago I did some volunteer work with disabled children for a few months. Basically assist them, organize a summer camp for people with and without disabilities, teaching other volunteers how to approach and effectively help them, etc.
I also did some workshops showing non-disabled people what certain disabilities are like, how they affect you in ways they wouldn’t even expect, how to improve things to make them more accessible and so on.
Even today, I get constantly shown ads for clinics, medical treatments, wheel chairs, prosthetics,… ugh
I do use uBlock Origin. But I’m not allowed to do so (and do not have the privilege to do it anyways) on my work devices. My PiHole takes care of a part of the ads for these, when I work from home, but still…
Also there’s a decent chance, that $App finds a way to shove ads down your throat anyways, though there aren’t many apps left that try to show ads, as I consider that a ban able offense that’s worth a Deinstallation without warning

What would a workplace have against adblockers???
Do they WANT viruses on work computers? Adware exists and is a threat.
Nah, but they mandate chrome based browsers, and after manifest V2 was removed…
We do still have ad blockers, but they do not work as effectively as before.
