> Is this really the reason people block ads?

I block ads mostly because they take up a lot of bandwidth and I don't have an unlimited amount on my cell. Plus, many ad networks don't seem to protect the users from malevolent javascript. I also block Flash for the same reason.

I'm not opposed to ads, I'm opposed to auto-play video script fests that try to sell me the thing I just browsed on Amazon.
