I’m a fan of the sites that put up a small banner at the bottom saying “we see you’re using an adblocker. We totally get it. Here are other ways you can support our work”. I have bought a few items at the BB store. Happy to support them that way. I’ve paid directly to individual writers, or used a quick online form to pay a few dollars toward a larger organization (the Guardian, say). On the other hand, the more intrusive the ads, the less likely I am to reward their actions by buying anything, either from the ads themselves or from the site forcing the ads on me.
