I also notice the significant ad presence here, on this site too. Its now significantly slower to browse PPT than it was a few years ago. Simple page transitions take too long, especially since I have 2Mbit/s.

I won't begrudge PPT its revenue, but in my opinion, PPT has gone too far. The ads now impact my usage of the site too much. They've been blocked.

Ironically, I own most of what is advertised already, and I've never clicked an advert in my life. I even highlight the URL in Google search ads and paste it to the address bar to circumnavigate the click recording system because my time is expensive.

++Edit++

Downloading this page = 130Kb @ 4 seconds
Downloading with ads = 280Kb @ 12 seconds

I'm international. Your ad servers aren't.
