Honestly, personally I do not mind ads. But the amount of garbage that is loaded in the browser on popular sites make uBlock necessary for me.

Not entirely surprised.

The numbers were already up there, but I imagine YouTube's recent campaign only drove them higher. More people than before are now aware that adblockers exist and they love using them.
