    I understand your reasoning for calling ad-blocking for piracy, but I’m not sure I agree, or else we have to split “piracy” into degrees.

      So what if it has to be split into degrees? The world is a complex place and wishing it was simple doesn’t make it so.

        2pt… Had an important point: piracy = copyright infringement.

        Blocking ads is a ToS violation, not piracy.

        By describing what you mean, instead of a word which often leads to discussions on word definitions, you can avoid the latter.

        I found saying “homophobia” lead to talk about “I don’t fear them” (phobia) rather than discussion on mistreatment. So instead I would say “aversion to homosexuality”.
