This has been my red line on where I will allow ads vs blocking them. If a site is hosting their own ads, that's acceptable to me. If they are using an ad provider, that is not. The newspaper example is my go to. If you wanted your ad in a paper, you called the paper and took out an ad. Today's equivalent would be every time you opened the paper, a slight delay while it randomly chose the highest bids for the ad space while potentially also inserting something that would slowly eat your hands. That's a nope.
You are obviously in the camp that feels entitled to be able to read anything at anytime without allowing for a website to earn money by wanting to block all ads regardless of their origin.
