MODERATORS
Ironically I don’t think it would take foot. Many average users I know of use adBlockers - albeit shitty ones - and I don’t think companies would be willing to risk it
I don't know: people I know don't always use ad-blockers and if they do they have no idea that they are less effective on Chrome than on Firefox.
Also they all have been brainwashed to use Chrome because it was marketed as "faster, better and safer" all those years ago and wouldn't even think of switching browsers (or it would be for another Chromium-based one)
People at home aren't what matters. Companies will absolutely use it when it's the next upgrade and deemed secure by whoever it is that keeps telling them to only use chrome and IE/Edge.
