Ad-blockers are technically piracy. It doesn't matter how unfair the ads are, they are what fund the creators (or the creators through YouTube). I don't seem to recall him berating people for ad-blocking, he just said that people should accept that they are pirating the content. I guess people don't like self-reflecting when they are labelled.
