Adverts are not going away 

In Phorm launches data pimping fight back

At least, not until a substantial number of people want to start paying for Internet content. How much would ElReg have to charge for access to its pages if it were unable to raise revenue by including ads on the pages? (And even then it's easy to block many of them.)

If you want to restrict your Internet browsing to sites where there are no adverts and all content is contributed for free, there's always Wikipedia :)
