Google looks to be fully shutting down unsupported extensions and ad blockers in Chrome – which might push some folks to switch to Firefox (www.techradar.com)

I wouldn't call that average...

However, people are likely to blame the extension

It’s been a decade since I have done professional computer repair, but the lack of knowledge that people had always shocked me. I don’t mean surprised me, I mean outright shocked me with their ignorance. They just don’t care, and don’t want to care. Computers and the internet aren’t that important to A LOT of people, and no, they’re not all old.

I think you are describing less than half of the population. It probably varies by region but to say that's average is not a fair statement.
