>You might as well say radio stations wouldn't transmit if they knew I turned them off for a few minutes during commercial breaks, and claim that that is a bug, and that I am illegally exploiting that bug for free radio.
Radio stations inherently can't selectively broadcast. Websites can.
The fact that websites already attempt to prevent ad blocked users from viewing content means that they would block it if they would know. Exploiting the fact that they don't know in a particular case (by using ad blocker blocker blockers, which are a thing) is exploiting a bug.
Plenty of websites have a contract or agreement about data they send you. See e.g. Youtube's terms of service, section 5.C.
