You're primarily concerned because... it encourages people to do things that could result in them being tracked? This seems like a bit of a stretch to me. The original statement I was replying to was the lament of ad tracking still existing. Even if ad tracking didn't exist though, you would still be constantly confronted with non-tracking ads that are potentially even worse. The proof is across every highway and Nascar wrap and back-date newspaper you collect: we put ads on damn near everything. Tracking or not, people just pay to put content in places. Publishers think it's a fair deal. Unless the Free Market creates a more attractive alternative, you're more helpless than the people in hell begging for ice water.
