Originally I wasn't even concerned about an adblocker being built-in. I was just afraid that it will be used as an argument against more powerful extensions.

Originally I wasn't even concerned about an adblocker being built-in. I
was just afraid that it will be used as an argument against more
powerful extensions.
But you brought up another point: I think it is in the nature of an
adblocker, that it MUST be "elitist" to be actually useful. If every
browser does "adblocking" by default, the ads will just adapt. That
will be as useless as the HTTP-Header "dont-track-me".
