Ah, but what you don't know is that my TOS for when I watch a video is that if the video is bound by TOS, those employed by the company establishing the TOS are pedophiles and child abusers and I reserve the right to shoot them on sight.

This is clearly printed on my router, the megabytes can read it when they enter my room. I also have it somewhere in a doc file on my laptop that's been uploaded to my Google drive, as well as on this lemmy post that is unrestricted to the public. Google and any other entity have access to read this whenever they want.

Time to go shoot some child molesters, yeah?

Sidenote: I fucking hate people bringing up TOS. Any contract signed by one party is applicable to exactly that one single party, and my signature is vastly different from a mouse click.

I am not disagreeing with people using adblockers, the guy I responded to brought up TOS, I just corrected him about what they are because he misunderstands them.

Well, you specifically said blocking ads EQUALS piracy, and I don't see where blocking ads resulted with me owning my own copy of the content in question, or with me selling that content for profit.
