Avoiding manipulation

One issue that is not mentioned here is the freedom from psychological manipulation by advertisers. Avertisement is designed to appeal to emotion and subtly bypass the rational decision making process. Protecting oneself from that is a valuable effect og adblocking. Nobody likes being manipulated. 92.40.253.234 (talk) 11:30, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Personally, I agree with you but
  • I suspect that the topic belongs more in the Advertising article than here.
  • Do you some reliable sources about the matter as it pertains to ad filtering?
