By this argument going to the bathroom during a commercial break is piracy.
This isnt "someone being offended when accused of piracy"
This is " People getting upset when an idiot tries to blame end users, instead of holding the people who created the problem accountable"
Cause adblock isnt a user problem.
Its an ad service problem. They created a hostile environment where people had to run adblockers to protect themselves against unmoderated and unpoliced content and malicious/infected advertising.
If you have issues, blame the people who caused it, not the end users trying to protect themselves.
Did Linus blame anyone though?
No. He simply stated a fact.
Actually I have a track record of 100% getting up to do stuff when ads happen
Like what are you even doing in your life bro?
Ad blocker on a tv broadcast, sure.
