Right, absolutely it's his choice. I wouldn't even go as far as saying I'll never buy a product from him again, just that I wouldn't on day one. It's not that I necessarily disagree with what he's saying (I'm glad the conversation is being had), I'm just surprised he didn't anticipate this reaction.
On a broader note, if he is concerned about the ethics of ad blocking, perhaps it would've been better to maintain control of one of the most popular ad blockers? Then he would at least have been able to influence the outcome, e.g. encourage his users to adopt whitelists or similar.
