Then people will reverse engineer the AdBlock checker and make the content load without ads
Sure, but it's much easier to be on the defensive here rather than the offensive. And it implies your site is popular enough to warrant anyone reverse engineering it anyway.

Since the adblocker strats are necessarily public, you could even have a system to automatically monitor them and apply a set of composable tweaks which breaks the current public release.
