some sites are dependend on banner ads so I don't think it's fair blocking them unless they are taking over the site. If a site bothers you, just don't go there.

No its not.

YOU VISITED THE SITE. YOU MADE THE CHOICE.

There is a difference.

SPAM is unsolicited email that you have NO CHOICE in receiving.
There have been many, many posts made throughout the world...
This was one of them.
