Youtube adblock blocking (sh.itjust.works)

I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated, but I am guessing there are a lot of adblock users here and I was wondering if anyone has seen the youtube adblock warning message in the wild. I use ublock origin and still haven't seen it once.

So they are against it by using it? What?

I also think these corporations are evil, but complaining about everything they do just because it is an inconvenience for them? They should complain and act on the shit that matters.

Against it by "using" it in a manner which deprived the company of revenue - such as watching videos with an adblocker.

This, in their mind, counts as "shit that matters".
