They are paying you. Have you ever noticed that you don't need to pay anything access the websites (like the one you're on right now), public broadcast tv shows, public broadcast radio stations, etc that you enjoy every day?
These all exist because the companies who want access to your eyes are subsidizing most, if not all, of the costs to produce them.
If you disagree with the methods used to advertise you have two choices: send a message by not utilizing their services, or don't.
That being said, I do use some basic ad-blocking to prevent inappropriate popups and content on sites I am not as familiar with. However, in general, I choose to only do business with sites that don't use intrusive advertising.
