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.

Absolutely.

Adblocking is good cybersecurity practice. It puts into stark relief how much of Marketing is actually just manipulation and malware.
