My children (one is in High School and the other in College) don't get bothered by advertisements as much as me (are they desensitized?). I would rather pay for most of these "free" services if there was an option to simply opt out of having my data harvested.

It's a paradox: anyone who can afford to pay to opt out is a valuable target for advertisers.
