If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

i know this is extremely unlikely to happen, but imagine if both mozilla and google decides to remove adblock extensions in every way, if that happens, would you still pirate?

Some people might say about *arr aplications, but imo that wouldnt work, simply because without adblocks, the trackers would do something to stop it.

For people who pirate because they can't afford the increasingly more expensive games, how does the removal of adblocks change anything?

I think they're talking about ads on download pages making it more difficult to click the correct download button when pirating

Using those sites is just asking for trouble
