I'd say no, for the same reason I don't have "adblockers" installed. The site is making an implicit contract with their visitors -- "we are sharing this valuable content with you but in order to pay the bills and enable us to do so we need to also show these ads". You can refuse this contract and not get the ads, but to do so while still getting the content is "wrong" in my opinion. I think partial RSS is great, since it lets me scan the headlines on sites where I sometimes find valuable content but I don't want to always visit them and get their ads. The partial RSS allows me to only visit the site (and get the ads) when the content value appears to be something where I will agree to the ads part of the contract.
