I choose to disable adblock on all sites, and only block ads on websites I feel are not legit or are going overboard with the ads.

I choose to let sites do what they want with ads, since it is their site and their business plan/model. I also choose not to visit sites that have ads that I don't like.

This is unrealistic. Most sites I visit by following links without knowing in advance what their ads are like.

Of course it's realistic. I've been doing it for years.

This is exactly what I do as well and it drives me nuts that it's not the default normal way that adblockers work.

Do you also use a "@@*$document,domain=~foo.com|~bar.com" filter in order to accomplish it?
