Actually for my kids at least it's different. They're so used to ad blocked YouTube and ad-free Netflix. That when the adblocker fails for whatever reason they get first delighted to see something new and very soon after annoyed at having to see that shit all the time and cry for someone to help them.

We watch regular TV so little. The other day we didn't have internet for several hours, maybe a few days. That's when we discovered that the TV is actually too far away to reach the cable of the satellite dish.
