      Piracy is distributing media you don’t own. How does blocking ads equates with acquisition and distribution of media you don’t own? It doesn’t.

      Evading advertisement is not piracy.

        Piracy refers to the taking, not the giving.

        Pirates didn’t sail the seven seas heading out gold to others.
