We are not helpless in this and we should not just lie down and accept our fate.

On what grounds and by what rationale could adblockers be possibly outlawed? If you cannot answer this question reasonably, then please don't even mention this as a reasonable possibility.

Lobbying from the advertisers?

I personally don’t think it’s very likely, for one thing I expect most of the staff at the likes of Google run an adblocker.
