do you clickthrough on any of those ads you see?

I am a constant user of Adblock on Firefox. I believe the sites that are supported by ads need a clickthrough, not just a pageview to "deliver" for the site. Actually, taken to its logical conclusion, it needs a clickthrough and a purchase, right? Everybody's selling something.

But when I watch those ads, I'm already "paying" with my attention. I have that in limited supply and I would prefer to spend it as I see fittest, not as someone else does.

Once in a blue moon.
From what I've read, I think Clod's explanation on page-views is correct.
