You know... with uMatrix you can block the 'please dont adblock' element specifically so you don't have to see it anymore.

Do you mean uBlock (Origin)[1]? That's the one with the element picker[2] if that's what you're referring to. uMatrix[3] does not have cosmetic filtering which may be required to hide an element like the one in question. You'd need uBlock for that.

But you see, then when I present our site in front of all the big important people, I can't showoff my use of adblocker then.

Just open it in some other browser without the adblock, problem solved.
