End of the day it kind of comes down to you. We're typically trying to choose between privacy and functionality to get a good balance. But many companies have realised that they can wear you down if they try.
Think of the cookies law, it's meant to make sure you can easily stop websites from using cookies to track you if that is your decision. Instead companies make it so toxic and hard that most people just click accept.
For me, I'm even more likely to use blocks on websites that try to get around it, because I thinkt they deserve revenue even less. But for you it might make a world of difference to just be able to open up a page without hassle and be less annoying then an actual ad.
