I switched this to advocacy since this could turn into a debate.

Personally I don't have a problem with banner ads, and I don't even care
if they try to force visitors to their site to view them.
I've always figured this is better than the alternative. I don't want
to pay a subscription fee to every web site I visit for information.
I'd MUCH rather see a banner ad on their web pages.
Popup ads are much more annoying, but I can still live with them, given
the alternative.
And for people who don't like ads on sites, DON'T GO TO THOSE SITES!!!
Or buy a subscription from sites that offer ad-free browsing for a fee.
