Yeah isn't #5 a bit like letting websites that can afford it load faster? Eventually no one uses the slow ones. Those of us who care most about the site will have ad-free pages, attracting more followers/views than the ad-heavy posts, in a sort of death spiral.

I don't know how much hubski's server costs are, but I bet if they just opened a damn coinbase and said have at it, they'd get enough money to not think about this for three years. And who knows what new options will exist then.
