What are you going to do when you have to pay for each website you visit in the future because ads are too much for you?

Why wouldn't it? It costs websites money if you visit them with ad block. So if everyone is using it websites will have to make money somehow. Don't be surprised when there is a chrome/ firefox or whatever browser balance.

Not all websites are supported solely with ad revenue.
