That's interesting. I find their aggressive use of my bandwidth, disk caching, and CPU resources to be rude. Since I'm in control of those things, I don't feel bad about restricting them access to them. Not to mention their utter disrespect for me by enabling the tracking of me by the ad companies across the web.
I'm amazed whenever I watch someone else connect to the ad-infested web on their wide-open systems. I keep hoping that the ad companies will learn restraint, but they don't. As far as I can see, they just double down. I remember the internet before advertising got such a foothold, and I miss it (warts and all).
A few content-related, static linked images that match the look-and-feel of the rest of the page would actually encourage me to click on them. The over-complicated mess they have in place now is ridiculous.
