When it comes to dealing with advertisements when they’re surfing on their browsers. I’ve just learned recently about how Google has or is killing UBlock Origin on the Chrome browser as well as all Chromium based browsers too.
We’ve heard for years about people complaining, bitching, whining and vice versa about how they keep seeing ads. And those trying to help them, keep wasting time to tell these people that they’re surfing without extensions. Whether it’d be on Chrome or Firefox or another browser.
By this point, I’ve long stopped being that helper because if you cared at all about the advertisements you see, you would’ve long had gotten on the wagon of getting adblockers by now. You bring this onto yourself.
Seriously, of all people they’re the ones that have been around since the internet’s inception. They’ve had more time to adapt than anyone.
I’m not sure that flies for boomers. That’s the X’ers: my adult life pretty much matches the history of PCs, so I better know how to use them.
However my parents were older when PCs appeared, and at the time there seemed no reason to learn about them. Ok, my Dad was an engineer who built them, but my Mom never had any reason to use a computer until the Facebook era, when lots of regular people started to use email. It was still quite common at the time for adults to not see a purpose, so I give boomers a pass
