I have this pre-existing accessibility condition where I can't read sites with ads on them. I've been blocking ads my whole life and have a visceral reaction to other people's browsers if they don't have an ad blocker.
I don't see how they could possibly ban ad blockers but not screen readers or ther "focused" modes. If they do, I guess I'll just pretend I'm blind
