The deal your informally entering into with Slashdot is that in order
to pay for your request taking up thier resources you are served an
advert. If you don't like this 'deal' then you shouldn't request the
content.
Slashdot probably isn't the best example - I think they expect a lot of
ad blocking (considering who there audience is) and so their business
model probably takes that more into account than other sites might
(which is why you can subscribe to slashdot and get a few perks besides
not seeing ads).
