Yes, it absolutely does.
An adblocker has unconditional complete control of my browser because I want it to have unconditional complete control of my browser, because it cannot do what I want it to any other way. Taking that control away from me is malicious by definition. It's more malicious when every single person on the planet with a shred of tech knowledge knows with certainty that it's for the sole purpose of boosting Google's ad revenue at the expense of their users.
