Actually I'm okay with the idea, but only under these conditions: * They are "to the side", not pop-ups and not blocking or pushing primary content into canned sardines. * One can close/minimize them to make room when needed. * They are clearly ads and can't be mistaken for normal content, because you know sleazy marketers (ad purchasers) will try to trick viewers. * One can pay more to get an ad-free version, or even tiered so one can choose multiple levels between parting with money and annoyance level. * User can change spam level/features down the road without a big change-fee. * Does not mine personal info to target ad content, or at least offer a clear and easy way to opt out of targeted ads and related personal content mining. * Doesn't use "dark UI patterns" to trick users out of money, into loss of privacy, etc. (Amazon is doing more of that, it's friggen annoying.)
