I don't block ads, because I know that free services depend on advertising to stay up. They can be easily ignored. However, I do block Gmail ads (there is a very good Greasemonkey script for this) so that I can get the full width of email viewing. Google has enough money, anyways.

Obviously you do not grasp the definition of the word 'free'.

No. If everyone used ad-blockers, free services would not gain any money (except from donations, which few people do). That's why I'm supporting them by not using an ad-blocker and being a good person.
