Or the big content sites could serve the ads through their main web servers so the content couldn't be blocked easily. (The content sites would kinda be like a proxy.)
I run a couple of ad supported sites... I'd love it if more people saw the ads and things like adblock didn't exist. As mentioned in the original story, if adblock was meant to restore balance it has gone too far in my opinion. I hat pop-ups, pop-unders, and even flash ads. Those are what I think what caused the tipping point and created the need for tools like adblock. I only run flashblock and the browser's pop-up blocker because many of those ads are annoying. But a page with a banner and a skyscraper and one or two smaller ads is just paying its expenses and not going too far imo. If I don't want to pay, I should put up with a couple of not-too-intrusive ads.
