No you didn't, but neither did you sign the implicit social contract with the government.

But, like it or not, life without a government would be short, brutal and very unpleasant.

Similarly, all of the "free" content on the internet is generated by someone who has to live.

From my perspective, the "non-intrusive" advertising I allow Adblocker Plus to display is just about right. And, some tracking is OK and even good. For instance, if I search for something like a specialized tool, or an unusual part, for several days afterward I get static ads that offer this item at lower and lower prices. This is actually useful to me. And, sometimes I even buy whatever it is. But, I can still block the animated pop-ups and that kind of junk...
