Element Hiding Helper lets you target page components based on source. It has a standard filter for ads and other filters for egregious social buttons/trackers.

I also use it to remove annoying sign-up overlays and Google+ notifications when I search.

And if you add Stylish on top you can pretty much make webpages look like you want them to with 2m work - I often end up fixing huge ugly headers and the like (i.e. text size/color) on blogs I frequent!

THis takes care of half of the problem - seeing the ads.

It does not, unfortunately, prevent the ads from seeing you. (Very nearly literally these days.)
