I remember there was a bug (or intended behavior?) of people getting their accounts banned for certain kinds of mundane chat messages in live streams and I'm a little spooked that the same will happen with the recent escalation in the adblocking arms race.

    Way way more than had them before. Lots of people who didn't even know ad blockers were a thing became very aware

      I remember like the better part of a decade ago my sister was putting on some slop for my nephews and I asked why she didn't have an ad blocker "Can you get in trouble for that?" "Yes. The internet gestapo will immediately kick down your door."
