Re:Why “just use Adblock” should never be a professional answer by JamieLewis on Sunday February 02, 2014 @01:38PM (#7166918)
Here is the thing, I don't mind ads - but I do mind pages loading 10+ files of javascript when I am attempting to read an article.

I browse with noscript enabled, and for the most part the web is a much faster and a much, much safer place (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Haum9UpIQzU).

I am still amazed when I try to read a simple blog article and am greeted with a blank white page, it turns me right off the site and I go spend my time elsewhere.

I will happily shell out money for content that I like.
