Most sites have tracking via GA as well, why not just show advertisers that, and let them buy e.g. 1/3 of the monthly traffic? AFAIK most ad-blockers don't block GA (though other plugins do).

Edit: Ah, I just checked, uBlock apparently blocks GA whereas AdBlock doesn't.

If you add any privacy related list to any blocker, GA is blocked, thankfully.

AdBlock now allows ads and trackers from companies that satisfy their proper ad criteria. One of the criteria is also a payment that depends on the size of your company.
