YouTube's ban leads to a record number of users uninstalling their ad-blockers

There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
Why? Just delete your cookies and the counter resets. And even if you didn't want to do that why not just exempt the site?
The article says there are huge numbers of installs and uninstalls because of people trying different blockers. It’s a really misleading headline.
Because the bulk of YouTube users are borderline tech illiterate.
Most people don’t really understand the tech and just act on impulse. I think some of these users after seeing how atrocious and invasive ads have become will reinstall the blockers
