Absolutely! I am a big believer in paying for things. I wish sites would give me the "option" of paying and thus not being mined and spammed with stupid irrelevant advertisements (advocates often saying these two phenomena should cancel each other out and I have yet to see it ...) but most sites that I do pay for want to do all this stuff anyway!

To be honest I don't mind the mining so much, as long as I know there is some "protection" for my data - as is under discussion here. I do object to annoying poorly targeted ads though.
