> if you don't like websites with ads, don't use websites with ads.
I wish this was a tenable solution as if this were practical it’s exactly what I’d do. As it stands I can’t even use basic web search without ads, or even my banks online banking service!
Even services which I pay for are increasingly getting greedy and showing ads, which is unacceptable.
I do find advertising offensive, but I’m not fundamentally opposed to the concept. In reality though online ads are heavily abused by almost company/individual and I will opt to control my network traffic as I see fit.
