I imagine this is why the page specific off button in uBlockOrigin is really big; to allow more of the pseudo-random menu detectivery that happens in this situation to find it instead of disabling uBO completely in the settings.
But this theory kind of insinuates people who don't care about not being advertised to are dumb (or maybe I just thunk that, because I think you have to try knowing things about browsers to be smart).
