I prefer visible advertising not some tricky mix of content and adcopy...that is the route to vapidity.

I think so too. But disguising ads doesn't have to be that extreme: just display them as plain text served from your own website, and don't wrap them in divs that label them as ads. That simple approach alone will fool a lot of adblockers, as well as doing away with a lot of the nasty stuff that people legitimately hate about online ads. No 3rd-party tracking, annoyances, or malware.
