&gt;I would hope not, because by a similar argument adblockers and userscripts would also be illegal.<p>Does not follow.  Ad block is set up by the user to block connections.  Your work doesn&#x27;t change; the user just doesn&#x27;t see the full work.  Kinda if I gave you glasses that blocked the color red and then you went and looked at an art gallery wearing them.  The art hasn&#x27;t changed, but the item I gave you, which you willingly wore, just stops some part of the art from being displaying into your eye.
