I've been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you're looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

The bane of marketing.
Somewhere, some metric told them that they don't need to make good ads that explain the product. They only need to be as annoying as possible to garner attention, and put their branding on the end to be remembered.
Marketing is about hacking your brain in order to sell you products you do not need. It is horrible and should be banned entirely.
"Marketing" is just a euphemism for "propaganda" and is just as unethical (if not even more so).
