Poor analogy. Since when is an adblocker a crime?

  Since websites depended on ad revenue to deliver the content and services that visitors consume?

      It could be argued it is a crime, depending on the court's interpretation of the DMCA's circumvention clause.

        It could also be argued that a government body responsible for regulating crime suggests you use an ad block. https://www.standard.co.uk/tech/fbi-recommends-ad-blocker-online-scams-b1048998.html https://www.standard.co.uk/tech/fbi-recommends-ad-blocker-on...

  It's not a crime, and I use adblockers, but it's not hard to understand that using adblockers on websites which are ad-supported is a self-destructive cycle.
