If you can't figure out how to make money without malware riddled ads, then your business a shit and deserves to die.

Anyway people should have control over their computing.
They are the ones who decides what does go in or not.

No one is in the right
Ads are one possible source of income that allows a website owner to pay the bills
On the other hands, the majority of ads gathers informations about the user and can contain malware and in general they weight more than the website itself, slowing everything down, so people prefer to block them
If ads didn't contain any code but were just a static image linking to the advertised product there would be no need to block them (unless you are against ads entirely)

Ads would still get the ip of the people seeing it thus leaking info on the passage of someone.

The user is in charge of what they request and what they run on their computer. Therefore, they are in the right, and if the website owners crying poor don't like it, they should figure out a way to make money that doesn't conflict with that.
