 * I’m not too familiar with how ad-blocking works. From what I understand, ad-blocking
   software has a list of known ad servers, and will block those from being displayed.
 * Suppose I’m using Ad Inserter Pro for displaying text only (no ads). Would ad-
   blocking come into play at all?

 * Ad blocking software usually blocks resources based on the patterns found (HTML
   element classes, IDs, JavaScript variable/function names, etc.).
 * Notmal text and simple banners (that are not recogized as ads) should not be 
   blocked. This is also a common replacement to display instead of the blocked 
   ads.
