Methodology
The  comScore  data  included  in  the  report  is  derived  
from  its  opt-­in  panel  of  approximately  2  million  
desktop  internet  users  from  around  the  world.  The  
data  is  collected  through  passive  observation  of  a  
sample  group.  The  results  are  then  statistically  
weighted  to  provide  an  accurate  representation  of  
each  included  country’s  Internet  population.  
http://www.comscore.com/
The  Sourcepoint  data  included  in  this  report  is  based  
on  analysis  of  actual  ad  block  instances  – both  
desktop  and  mobile  – faced  by  dozens  of  premium  
publishers.  In  addition,  Sourcepoint  provided  
Comscore  with  details  on  how  its  panel  could  be  
used  to  detect  the  presence  of  the  most  popular  ad  
blocking  software.
