Ars Technica offering Pro subscription with no tracking code

Ars Pro: Now free of tracking scripts for subscribers
I wasn't aware they even had a $25/yr ad-free subscription, but with the addition of all tracking code removal, this is a steal. If Icrontic was still in the content business, this is definitely the sort of model that I think works best right now. The web is broken with the current bottomless pit of Javascript running on most sites and it's important to get behind efforts like this. Subscribed.

This is cool. I went with Pro++ because why not? I spend a lot more than $4.25/month on stuff that matters a lot less. Plus, free YubiKey.
Out of the corner of my eye, I read this as "Ars Technica offering Prostitution with no tracking code"
But as far as the actual topic, I agree that the business model is better than most alternatives.
