What a coincidence that knowledge and intelligence also correlates quite well with wealth.

What a weird study. What does wealth and ad blocking have to do with each other anyway?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

So you have add block and supporter add block running at the same time?

 

Adblock says it's still blocking 2 ads on this page even though I'm supporter lol.

Makes sense, people who know more tend to earn more money on average.

People with more computer knowledge are generally smarter people thus they make more money.

Yes, which makes the study weird. Why not just outright say that smart people use adblock.

VGChartz is to blame for rise in ad blockers.

Also time is money, i am not wasting precious 10 minutes a day on closing ads.

True, I started using adblock due to the ad rape of this site.

Not only is it a nuisance to look at, it literally makes my PC run poorly if I open a few Windows.
