SalimoS··on Chrome, 10 Years Later
no you request a resource (webpage) the ad was sent to you by the owner of the resource (it's his right to put whatever he want the the webpage) as your right to not request it/block it

PS:in another comment i tried to explain how i see it https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33919824

SalimoS··on Chrome, 10 Years Later
The same as adblock exist (im not agains ad blocked, im using them already it's just trying to explain that the moment you requested the webpage it's up to the website to put whatever it wan't(his right), the job of your browser is to display it and your right to refuse the ad, hide it, block it or automate it in the browser level by an extension or your OS level (blocking DNS)

SalimoS··on Chrome, 10 Years Later
The way i see it (an example) you as a user want to read a story that i wrote in my website but when you request it i'm embedding an ad with the story, it's my right to embed the ad and not showing what i wrote without it and it's your right to not open the website

it's not perfect, im using an ad blocker and i can't understand how people can surf the internet without one but hopefully we can find a solution the change the whole free internet based on ad with something else

SalimoS··on Chrome, 10 Years Later
>Yes, it absolutely is

following your reasoning it's your media player job to skip the uninteresting part of a video you're watching ?

no, the browser job is to display what he receive from the resource YOU requested what the server put in that resource is between you and it (you can "cheat"(not my word but liked/steal it from another comment) by drop the ad or choose to not requesting the resource all together).
