I choose to not monetize my website (http://www.stratigery.com). I saw advertising very obviously corrupting newspapers in the 80s and 90s, and I view that corruption as part of why newspapers didn't adapt to The Internet. I decided to avoid all that potential bad influence by not monetizing.

I don't think you can assume everyone is in the same boat as you. Using something like AdSense isn't going to "corrupt" this guy's website. It's not like Google is making him do ads for Viagra. The key, like with most things, is moderation.
