Well, does it?
What I can't stand are animations which could be of any type and it doesn't matter what the content is. It's just the movement that annoys me and the faster and more flickery it is the worse it is. For me, it's static ads or bust so I have to use an ad blocker to maintain my sanity. If TPU could have static ads, then I'd disable that ad blocker on here immediately. I actually like seeing these techy ads, too.
(Some people might dispute my sanity, but that's a different argument. )

Imagine you had to start paying to view content on all your favourite websites.
Would you give up on the internet completely or happily stump up for good journalism and entertainment?
These are the choices we could be facing if ad blocking programs go mainstream.
This is because advertising revenue underpins about 90% of everything we see online - it's the internet's fundamental economic model.
Yet Apple's decision to allow its iPhone and iPad Safari browser to block ads through the use of third-party software extensions could seriously undermine this model, analysts believe.
