I'll trust the block lists from my internet neighbors. Thank you for your concern but the people who build those lists take sufficient care and most use a transparent process to add rules to them, like GitHub pull requests, and if there's ever a rule that wrongly blocks a site I can whitelist it myself with ease.

They might burn some CPU cycles but surely the ads themselves burn much more.
