Usage of ad blocking software in the United Kingdom (UK) 2019, by type

Published by Statista Research Department, Jan 19, 2021
This statistic displays the results of a survey on the usage of ad blocking software in the United Kingdom (UK) as of February 2019, broken down by type. The survey found that 72 percent of respondents stated that they used ad blockers such as Adblock or Adguard, whereas nine percent of respondents selected software during the survey that was either anti-virus software or ad blocking software that did not actually exist, indicating that the true share of UK ad blocking users could be lower than survey results suggested.
