I just disable them via /etc/hosts because I can't tolerate any more useless javascript putting load on my CPU. My workstation (E5-2640) has seen multiple generations of operating systems, video editing software, DAWs. Browsers and web browsing in general is the only thing that I can tell it's getting consistently worse year after year. I know it's an odd metric but 10-15 seconds to fully render a newspaper homepage is more than it takes for my full DAW setup (Cubase + FL Studio as VST plugin) to fully come up with tracks loaded and play button ready. I don't even recall dialup being this bad.
