I think Meta is in the right, and I use an adblocker on my browser. If they stopped serving me content because I'm using an adblocker, I would have to accept it or disable my adblocker on their website. There's nothing hypocritical about this position. They allow me to use their content in this way so I will, if they didn't, I wouldn't. Working against their explicit wishes (circumventing anti-adblock) is what's wrong. I'm unable to block their ads on my phone app, so I use it less, but when I use it, I have to see ads.

Yep, when I go to a page that blocks content because I have an ad blocker on I don’t even try to bypass it or inspect source and edit to remove it - I just go elsewhere.

Working against their explicit wishes The companies want you to look at all their ads and be indoctrinated to them. They'd even get you to drink a verification can if they could. Is this the world you want to live in? Part of personal freedom is about being able to do what you want on your own property, even if others don't like it.
