Yeah but they also lighten the ad servers' load by not downloading the ads themselves, so it evens out. And considering most load from modern websites is indeed tracking and ads, I might even argue that adblocking saves the website money when I was never going to click on an ad anyway.
If a website needs money to exist, paywalls and donations exist. If a website serves content without payment, that's their problem not mine.
