Well, actually, perhaps not. That's the point. Past a certain size, if you're sleazy and manipulative we're going to control your actions.
But even if, how is that "sure, but you can't legally stop them" a defense? How is it one you feel compelled to make?
Especially because I can technologically stop them. They can block one plugin, and detect one set of blocks, but it's a game we've played many times before and the defense always loses.
