azephrahel makes a very good point here that some have not seemed to notice. Since Mozilla already can block banner ads in general, there could almost be nothing *easier* than writing a simple Mozilla addon to remove this proposed sort of banner ads, thus rendering the banner ads totally useless to all Mozilla users. Probably plugins for IE and other browsers would soon arrive also. So while it might work at first, pretty soon no one is going to be seeing those ads. Then the question really becomes, is anyone going to pay for banner ads that no one will ever see?
