> Don't like ads? Don't visit sites that run ads.

Lots of people, especially in the developing world, don't have that luxury, and they're also incidentally those with underpowered devices and less tech savvy to go get an ad blocker.

I thought we were talking about our own individual choices. At least we can do something about them.

As the problem is described, I don't see any way how it can be approached.

- Don't want ads and tracking — Well, they exist and aren't going anywhere.

- Don't use sites that show ads — Nah, can't, don't have this luxury.

- Install ad blocker — Nah, don't know how or don't have a powerful enough device.

What else is there to do? Keep seeing ads, I suppose. Learn to endure them somehow.
