Extensions for blocking are not only about ads. If you take a look at ublock site it does say it uses privacy and malware lists.

Therefore it is quite easy to understand and follow, and was suggested by FBI that we should use such extensions for our own protection.

Anyone saying, or implying that we should not use commonly named 'ad blocking' is spreading real harm to people.

When it comes to YouTube it is easy to understand the throwback. It always has been free. Now it is changing, but people are accustomed to this, and it is very bad to shame people for wanting things to keep that way. I agree, that if YouTube TOS say you should not be using them, then fine by me. YouTube goes bye bye. This is the only reason why they did not close all the loopholes, because that is how you loose your viewers, publicity, eyes, and eventually shareholders, and entire ad business. Microsoft for years tolerated piracy to keep them the most popular operating system. That still allows them to shame everybody for what they allow.
