Well we (web developers) are trying to make the ad experience as best as we can. A lot of websites wouldn't even exist without ads (Google, Facebook etc...).
If ads are annoying you, use Adblock, but do not remove ads from every user by default!
I work for big startup in the US, and we wouldn't exist without ads.

I think they're just doing that to get good publicity (oh Free doesn't show ads on internet? I think I'll sign-up at that ISP!) and also to piss off youtube.
They will turn it off by default in a couple weeks/month for sure. Mark my words.
