As a whole I do not trust any websites.
I do ofc whitelist trusted sites I frequent.
But even then, you can get some dodgy crap if those websites outsource their ad space.

They started it with malicious advertisements, so I ended it with ad-blockers.

websites existed before adsense and other ads... the sites will still be there if the company not willing to continue some one would surely take their place, i know i would just to have it on resume and hobby and im not the only one.

Sites existed before because they had huge budgets to afford it. Most modern day sites don't operate on the same basis though. I'd hate to live in a world with only a few big names on the web when many smaller sites do a better job at reporting for instance.
