It's also that so many ads are malicious and present in incredibly bad faith. Maybe that ad from Welches is fine, even if I had to watch it 3 times back to back, but that mobile game ad that hits my block list for malware isn't. Treating them the same is what the website does, even though some are malicious, so I treat them the same and block them all.
