Good lord, Yes. Disconnect, AdBlock, NoScript & a pretty hefty hosts file. I'll happily whitelist any site that:

1) Doesn't try and track the crap out of me. 2) Doesn't shove ads in my face. 3) Doesn't autoplay video/sound ads.

It doesn't seem like a huge amount to ask really, but the tracking is out of control in particular and just an enormous threat to privacy.
