I'd take ads any day. At least people can actually seewhat's being done on their machines with ads. If someone implemented an invisible miner on a site, it would take those keen and paying attention to notice. It's not about it being an alternative, it's about what users are in control of. You can't even opt out of TPB mining without taking your own measures, and nowhere on their site did it say that they were currently mining.
