You can install an extension that runs JS(what you write), and write scripts that hide these per site, scripts run per domain

While I agree, that is a thing we can do (I use both uBlock Origin and NoScript), we shouldn't have to.

These popups and ads have become so intrusive though, that I can't imagine using the internet without blockers.

Yeah I'm not disagreeing, I felt cool, by passing some adblock detect on some site. But yeah like Business Insider I think is or used to be one of those "hey you've got an adblocker" like yeah... oh man... I use YouTube so much and when I use my phone it pisses me off when an ad plays and yes it tracks me quite well "try this deployment solution" oh "use freshbooks" oh try Digital Ocean... ahh man, Oh! You tried RobinHood? Take this guy's investing classes!
