    The comment was replying to one about it being funny that Linus made a video about adblocking when he considers adblocking piracy. That would imply he is against adblocking in general, which your links does not show.

    Yes, he considers it piracy, but he is not against adblocking, which is why the original point of the parent comment doesn’t make sense.

        I did read it the first time, which is why I brought up the context of the first comment, which implied that Linus is against adblocking.

        The comment you claimed to be lying is talking about the actual context of why Linus compared adblocking with piracy, which is about content creators and payment of their content.

        I’m only calling you out for making a point that is not in the context of the actual thread, not against the proof of what you posted in the first place, so I’m not sure we’re even in disagreement here.

            Why would the first comment said it is funny for Linus to make a how to adblock video if he is not implying that a Linus against adblock? Please explain how that logic works.

                Yeah, because you YouTube is against adblocking. It would be more surprising if they don’t.

                Now answer my question why it’s funny for Linus to make such a video when he isn’t against adblocking, and how that would mean the parent comment wasn’t implying that he is against adblocking.
