That's how I do it. If I visit a site and it has a popup, or popunder, or full of blind links, or fake IM ads, etc. Any of the above, to me, tells me the site owner has a different set of values, with respect to user's experience, than I do. Then I make a decision whether the content is worth enduring it or not. No adblocker needed -- it's personal choice and we all set our own criteria for acceptable user experience. I just make it a point to never visit websites that annoy me.

In the end, each person is in control of their own online experience and has the choice to frequent a site which annoys them, or not.
