As the de facto IT guy for my family, I block ads on all their computers just as a basic safety measure.

I can usually spot a fake download button and avoid scammy sites, but my parents and grandparents seem magnetically attracted to them

Plus there are ads now that give you plague just by loading them, which is uniquely horrifying to those of us who are informal tech support. D:
