    Fully blocking only if you aren’t using uBlock Origin, which you just have to update the filters on.

    Complete waste of effort.

    Alphabet needs to be broken up.

      Not even that, I use Adblock Plus and have no trouble accessing Youtube and watching videos. Didn’t even need to update any filters, it just keeps working as-is.

      This effort I don’t believe was targeting people like most of what you would find here.

      This ad-block ban, was mostly targeted at people who didn’t know what an ad-blocker was and didn’t want to have to deal with having to get banned.

      If Alphabet(google) is actually serious about blocking ad-blockers, I would be surprised. Mostly because Microsoft has had more experience with this, also has billions, and even they quit.

      Until they start banning accounts for violating the tos. Then people with 20 years of emails are going to be lost without them.
