When I stumble upon these obtrusive ways to hide content I'll just leave. If possible I'll try and find that content somewhere else.
What works best for me are instead the polite and discreet banners asking me to allow ads on their domain. Also because probably I know their ads won't be flashy and annoying.
I guess every website makes a choice based on their tone of voice and what works best for their audience, but I'll always feel morally obligated to let them know the obtrusive manners won't work on me ;)
