Lol that's like too funny now. Hitting legitimate users with the nagware, so that the only ones having a good experience are the pirates :D Tale as old as the first VHS tape

Let’s be real. Blocking ads isn’t pirating.

Ads are the form of payment for the service and using a paid service without paying is piracy. How do you think this is any different?

Damn, didn't think I'd see a corporate shill over here for YouTube/ Google.

When did I say piracy was wrong?

In this case it's apparently the only option.

Nono, fuck google but it's still a form of piracy

running an adblocker or script blocker in your browser is a crucial component of safe and secure internet use. until the sites and ad networks fully vet and guarantee the safety and legitimacy of the ads and scripts they serve, fuck them all.

No it's not. If an ad break comes up on tv and to avoid them you go for a pee or get some snacks, no sane person would call that piracy. It's pretty much the same with youtube, I could just leave the room while an ad plays. Adblock just automates the task of not watching the ad.

The German government literally ruled otherwise. You are objectively, legally,, and morally incorrect.
