Yeah. What company wouldn't allow it?

When I was working for an ad exchange, everyone had adblock installed in their browsers, I found that quite ironic.

I would argue it's a security issue not to have any ad blocking. Many scams online start with popups or fake ads.

So if you get the opportunity to talk to IT that's what I would mention.
