I for one will not be disabling my Ad blocker because I don’t want to see Ads while I am trying to read an article so bottom line. Wired.com just lost another visitor to their website and may loose more traffic as more people refuse to disable their Ad blockers.

I have boycotted similar websites due to ads as well like ABC News.
