It&#x27;s really great to see that people are paying attention to the problem of low-quality ads.<p>But I don&#x27;t want to see ads.  Of any quality level, high or low.  Ever.  I will never turn off my ad blocker, for any site.<p>I just don&#x27;t want my day-to-day to be influenced by random companies trying to sell me things.  Certainly, I can&#x27;t avoid it: I live in a city, and walk everywhere I can, and it&#x27;s impossible to avoid seeing billboards and the like.  If I could wear a pair of contact lenses that would blank out real-world advertising, I would.  But online ads I can avoid.<p>I buy things when I want to.  If I feel that I have a specific want or need for something, I&#x27;ll seek it out, and select the brand and model based on research pulled from the most unbiased sources that I can find.  Perfect?  No, of course not.  But advertising is an abomination.
