Not necessarily, since having the API available for you personally is only one part of the problem.
The other question to ask is, will you even have an ad blocker to install, given that Gorhill has hinted these changes might mean abandoning Chrome as a target platform?[0]
If enough ordinary people move to enterprise, Google will eventually restrict that as well. If not enough people move to enterprise, extension authors won't support Chrome and you'll be stuck writing or forking your own ad blocker. So you're gambling on being able to walk very thin line alongside a company that's already shown you that it is actively hostile to your interests.
The more permanent answer is to just switch to Firefox and stop playing their game. Switching to enterprise will probably at best buy you some time before you're forced to make that decision.

- yellowapple 7y agoOh, I switched to Firefox years ago (Chrome still doesn't offer any reasonable equivalent to Tree Style Tabs). This would be more for the folks that I haven't quite convinced yet to do the same.
