Disagreeable to whom, exactly?

Personally, I would rather the adverts were irrelevant if it meant I didn't have my every move tracked on the web.

The main problems I have with ads are, in order from most problematic to least:

* the lengths that ad networks go to to track me, * the very real possibility of getting malware, * the lengths advertisers go to to ensure their ads are seen. (We have popup blockers in pretty much every browser nowadays for a reason.)

Take away those, and you could convince me to disable my ad blocker. Until then? Not a chance in hell.
