Unfortunately, in the US and Europe at least most people will care about this and even get a response. I think 4-5 years back when I was in one of the cities in which MTNL is there in India, ads were being served in the same way on MTNL. They were injecting an ad serving pop-up on every page served on HTTP. The worst thing was it sometimes used to show some sketchy virus ads also. I complained about it multiple times, never even heard back from them.

It strikes me that the best way to combat this might be in the browser itself - intercept and remove the offending javascript (or better, redirect its execution into a walled sandbox where it thinks it's setting cookies and downloading code) and remove it from the main page viewing stream.

You just needed to change to google DNS, which you would have to do anyway - AWS CloudFront doesn't resolve at all in some circles.
