Well I can't complain about the substantial sum I pay to Randy and company for the free use of FT. I often click on banners as that is what banner ads are all about. Takes a few seconds.

The only things that sneak in every 6 months or so are pop ups and I recall reading Randy post that these annoy him as much as anyone else and he instructed his ad vendor to exclude them from FT.

Some complaining seem to have not mentioned that "ads" in the past weeks have often related to a charity, that I assume appreciated the free advertising offered to them.

One highly technical (and zero cost) trick I can suggest to those who are so bothered by these "ads" is to train the brain NOT to look at the top inch of each FT page. Works every time I understand.
