> On the contrary, I've always felt that content to display, and in particular code to execute, on my device is my decision and mine alone.
Absolutely. I reserve the right to decide what gets displayed on my computer, and what code runs. Websites can try to serve me stuff I don't want to see, but if they do, I am well within my rights to remove it.
That doesn't stop at ads, either. I often use my ad blocker's element hider to remove all the superfluous cruft that adorns so many websites. I don't want to see your social media sharing buttons, your half-page auto-playing videos, your cluttered sidebars, or enormous footers. And I definitely don't want to see your "Open in App" buttons that occlude the lower portion of your content.
If you want to ruin your site with user-hostile design, then fine, but that won't stop me from making it usable again on my device.
