If only everyone used uBlock instead of the countless other scammy adblockers with millions of active users, which do not take privacy nearly as seriously. OP also never mentioned uBlock specifically, so I wouldn't be so quick to call it FUD.

Whether or not this is a sufficient solution is one thing, but there are some legitimate problems with the current state of adblocking. Being able to provide a similar solution in a far more limited fashion would be a good thing for users.
