Maybe I'm missing something here. If I run an ad blocker, it's because I don't have a paid account, and if I don't have a paid account, what do I care if you ban me, when I can just create a new account?
Strange thing is that I never intended or expected my regular ad blocker to skip Spotify ads. I just kinda noticed one day that there seems to be more ads on mobile, and I left it at that. Then one day I noticed a bug related to looping on the desktop web client, and while trying to figure out what's going on.. that's when I finally realised that my regular ad blocker is skipping Spotify ads, and is messing up looping in the process.
So.. I guess there might be others who are kinda unintentionally blocking Spotify ads too. Terminating accounts without warning for people who are not even aware that they are in the wrong is gonna result in backslash, I think.
Agreed, this exact same thing happened to me before I upgraded to a premium account. uBlock Origin is always on for me and set to noscripting, so I was really confused at that bug. I assume that they'll implement some sort of warning system though.
Too bad Spotify, if I leave the music playing and go to the bathroom will you be upset too? It's my choice what to listen to and if I chose to use some automation to help me that's my business.
