I would absolutely not expect good behaviour from them with respect to advertising, including but not limited to tracking.

That site was the final bail of hay that had me install ad blocking measures at the network level. Too often their advertising partners would attempt pop-ups, drive-by installs, gaining access to microphones, and other arse-hole-ery.

For myself I can just stop going there, but there are others in the household that wouldn't have done and I didn't want the job of cleaning their machines is something did get in. Of course my other option is add imgur.com itself to a malicious sites list so it'll be blocked completely at the network level...
