I understand the concern with some ads/ad networks. But advertising can be the best way to provide no-cost content and resources. As this thread shows, ad-blockers, though understandable, cause harm to those providing valuable and genuine content and services.
I pay for many services, but there are also many services I would never pay for, but happily would put up with ads. To me, your suggestion implies that enough people with ad blockers would otherwise pay for all ad-supported services. I doubt that.
