well...
If adverts really worked that well, Then google would be having a bit of trouble being the worlds most useful search tool. If I need something there is a bloody good tool to find it.
Can't stand advertising myself, it ever so rarely applies to myself and even if I do see something that interests me, I am so Jaded by every other deceitful piece of advertisement I am immediately untrusting of the product, Therefore going out and having a look for something else or what is better anyway.
I have no problem with a blanket ban on EVERY AD with an ad blocker, but allow micro payments as donations to websites, Non mandatory.
