> just because an image of a pair of shoes offends your delicate sensibilities I added an ad blocker because the ads I was served were all ugly pictures of old faces. It was ads for some regenerating skin snake oil. It was physically disgusting me. I have no time to spare tweaking the filters, so I just block everything and all is well. This is to show that the bad practices taint the less bad ones. If ads were only small text, not served more than once a week, neutral, never served to kids or other sensible segment, I'd say it could be ok. Until then I prefer no ads. (I don't watch tv for this reason)
