You are losing against Microsoft marketing. In Europe one of the biggest electronic chains MediaMarkt (think bestbuy in its heyday) is currently running commercials targeting older audience and clearly co-financed by Microsoft. Its all about dangers of doing basic ecommerce on "old unsupported computers" and how you are going to have all of your data and identity stolen if you dont upgrade _right now_ to a new computer with Win11.

Funny how I just cleaned out a Windows 11 computer infested with malware that was used by a professional and infiltrated with an unknown vector. We think it was compromised via an ad.
A friend of mine's wife works in marketing and literally needs to run without an Ad Blocker for work. When I setup PiHole for them, had to manually set the DNS on her work computer to not block ads.
Yeah in our case this person is a professional in another industry and uses her device as an office machine... Adblockers are just not a thing they think about.

So is the ARD, desguised as "news".

A professional who didn’t use an ad blocker?
