I run a site that makes its money from ads, and I personally have no problem with people blocking them. I figure the people blocking them are less likely to click anyways, so I'm not too concerned. Obviously it would be a problem if everyone blocked ads, but I think that is pretty far off.
Example: I only bother to block them on my main computer, but don't on my phone, desktop, etc. Your average Joe is unlikely to start doing so soon.

Ad blocking will not be a major problem until it becomes the default on a widely used browser. It takes about 30 seconds to block ads in a modern browser, and the majority of people don't do it.
