Despite my qualms (I despise the ideology behind immersion advertising and don't trust the perpetrators one iota) I think that users are probably safer applying their own ad blocking if they wish to, rather than have TBB impose it by default. It feels (NB this is intuition, not research) like not having a consistent background ruleset to compare against should amplify the amount of analysis needed for effective fingerprinting. The biggest potential risk is if you use the same plugin with the same settings for both anon and non-anon traffic. I can't see a solution to that except education.
