I'm not blocking ads; I'm exercising my property rights.

That's how we need to be framing this, and the level of outrage we need to have about it: who the flying fuck do these technology companies think they are, to presume to dictate how I am "allowed" to use MY OWN PROPERTY?!

This is nothing less than a war on private property rights. They are trying to subjugate us and turn us into digital serfs. We are justified in defending ourselves and our rights by any means necessary. They are lucky we're merely taking technological countermeasures and not shooting them in the street.
