You overgeneralize. There are many sites with normal ads than don't disturb the users much. And again - no user experience (on a non-existent site) is better than degraded user experience? Why don't you just stop visiting the site when it doesn't matter to you if the site ceases to exist and let us others do what we want to do?

> breaking the law

No one is breaking the law yet. The law has been changed, and has been changed in a way that destroys businesses and people.

So be it. Either make proper ads or don't. Nobody needs that tracking stuff, except shady advertisers.

Or: just make it opt-in.
