That's really not the impression I get around here. I think it's clearly the intrusiveness with which ads are displayed and all those strings (trackers) that come attached with them.
I think most people on HN would agree that ads which don't require huge amounts of scripts, show video, play audio, connect to 17 tracking networks or make up 70% of the page weight would very much be tolerable.
