I support your arguments of free content, but there are some sites on the internet that will serve you spam if you don't use a ad blocking software.

I unblock ads on the free websites that I use frequently which present ads in a nice way.

Some websites do show a popup that they earn from ads and it would be great if you could turn off your ad blocker and I mostly comply with that. The reason for this is that these sites know when and where to show ads.



You probably wanted to reply to GGP. I am of the opinion content should be free or paid. I let ads through only if they come from the same website.

My problem with the non-annoying ads is that they still enable tracking and lrofiling which I do not like.

I think I've had Adblock+request policy/policeman running since forever - recently switched to ublockO+umatrix
