I agree wholly with @Demaestro. With arstechnica, the ads are placed consistently in the right-hand 1/3 or so of the page, so it is easy enough visually to ignore them.

The mind is the most powerful ad-blocker of all.

Indeed *most* feeds I follow regularly have a predictable position for ads, easily ignored, and by habit, I x out any pop-ups. No biggie. We're not in a hurry.
