Quote from the article: “Research shows that very few people find advertisements in more established media annoying,”
I wonder where this "research" was conducted. I find any and all advertising annoying, no matter where it is located.
The difference between "more established media" (which I interpret the author to mean print/television) and the web is that the user has little control over being force-fed the advertising.
What they are really upset about is loosing the control to "force feed" users ads against their will.
