You should only visit sites that don't have ads, then.

How pragmatic.

Personally, I don't see a reason why ads HAVE to be manipulative or misleading. What if it was in my own interest to see them?

Consider that I'm blocking them because I perceive them as a threat, and the fact that they can't stop me creates an incentive to reform in a positive way.

There's no reason ads can't be mutually beneficial. A company around town is looking for a programmer? Here's my resume guys! Future shop is having a clearance sale on HDD's? Let me get my coat!

You should install adblock! Increase that incentive! Why suffer ads? join me and push them towards being useful!
