I was using Opera with Adblock Plus, would that be enough or after the formar, would it be wise to use Chrome/Firefox instead?
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Adblock Plus is the one that will let ads through so long as they're paid to do so. Wouldn't touch Chrome since Google, as an ad business, has the motive to kill ad blockers and is already making steps toward doing so.
Opera is fine. However, AdBlock Plus is not. It has become infected with profit-driven decisions and now lets ads through that pay. Use uBlock Origin instead.
Would recommend Firefox with uBlock Origin installed. Adblock Plus allows ads through so long as they get paid, it shouldn't be used under any circumstances.
I'm a firefox guy but it's all preference. Definitely swap out adblock plus for ublock origin though.
