I'm confused, how would this make blocking ads harder? You can still make domains not resolve by changing your DNS resolver (which you control), but it stop my pesky ISP from blocking my access to a site.

I think perhaps you are in the EU and were using the "N" version of windows 10. I realized that the normal windows 10 installs a LOT of bloatware (Like I don't need candy crush), while the N version did not do that.
