Having an adblocker and whitelisting a website you want to benefit from ad revenue are not mutually exclusive.

While i agree i can for the love of god not suffer any advertisement at all. I just hate it too much, i would rather not use anything having it.

Don't give me that "We respect your privacy" bullshit logic.

Every time that sentence is used is to lull users into giving up their privacy. If they actually cared about our privacy, they wouldn't have any need to ask for cookies. Plenty of websites that do respect your privacy, like Wikiedia, that never had a cookie wall.

Same with ads. The only websites I would whitelist are the ones that don't shove ads anywhere.
