@jozeldenrust @sponsorblock I believe the first two occurrences of “anti-adblock” should instead be “anti-anti-adblock”. With that, it makes sense. Users use ad-blocking, YouTube counters them using anti-adblock techniques, and users in turn counter with anti-anti-adblock fixes.

@mudri @sponsorblock The first one makes sense if the "fix" means countering the countermeasures to your adblocking measures. But since "fix" is ambiguous - it can either mean causing the adblocking measures to work as intended, or causing the countermeasures to work as intended - it gets confusing.

I think this message could be improved by making both perspectives and objectives explicit. Use "Alice" and "Bob". Alice wants to watch YouTube without ads, Bob wants to show Alice ads, etc.
