I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated, but I am guessing there are a lot of adblock users here and I was wondering if anyone has seen the youtube adblock warning message in the wild. I use ublock origin and still haven’t seen it once.

    Yeah it’s even more ridiculous when you apply this logic to sponsored segments.

    It’s an ad, I skip it by seeking in the video, therefore it is piracy?

    Also, people get arrested and fined for piracy where I live (because it is, well, illegal), so people blocking ads should go to prison?
    When the face of LMG talks about things like this in a main channel video they should look into the consequences of the opinion they present.

    Excuse the language, but what the actual fuck was Linus thinking?
