Yes, this is a complete waste of time. Everyone has a moral right to control what their computer does, and many don't want to download ads. To work on fighting ad blockers (in the general sense) is arguably an immoral act, and probably puts you on the slippery slope to spamming, and once you're a spammer, well, bad breath and bad manners can't be far behind.
I dumped Ad Block Plus when I became aware of the whitelisting of certain advertisers. I use uBlock and NoScript on some machines, Privacy Badger and NoScript on others. I also use my home DNS aggregator to block major advertisers like doubleclick. This is my right and privilege.
