How ad blockers can improve your online safety and sanity

You boot up your computer, ready to start another day. You have fifteen minutes to catch up on the news and drink your coffee before your daily commute. Too bad you accidentally click on some blinking ad that directs you to a sketchy site that’s taking forever to load…

Well, there goes your morning. Maybe, you think, you should finally get an ad blocker like your co-worker keeps telling you too. But you’re not so sure. How effective are these ad blockers, anyway? Is it really worth your time to block something as benign as a slow-loading banners and the occasional rollover ad?

Are ads such a big deal anyway?

So you know what they look like because you’ve seen tens of thousands of them. They’re those pesky videos or banners that get in the way of the content you actually want to access.

But how do they work?
