Well, I run EasyList for most ads and then also other filters to remove "acceptable ads" so it works well for me.

I wasn't implying there weren't workarounds.

Just that Easylist is indirectly funded by ad revenue (google)

When it comes to ads, it's about the bulk of people, most don't run anything other than the default lists.
