I wonder how many people have an ad tolerance like me. Those ads are fine for most people but I get so annoyed by even that. The entire concept upsets me. I don’t want to be told what I’m supposed to want, ever, by some corporation unless I ask them.
Adds would be fine if they were unobtrusive, sidebar adds or hell those little bars that scroll across the bottom 10th of the screen like a news headline I’d be fine with those things. Its when the adds actually obstruct my ability to enjoy the product that I take issue.

Ads that permit code to run locally are a security hazard. That’s most ad platforms.
I’d deal with intrusive ads just fine (and when I was younger I used to), but I run an adblocker and noscript for security reasons. Unobtrusive ads don’t change that for me.
