Google is not going to “ban” users for using an ad blocker. Instead, they are testing a feature to block video player access for those with Adblock, not an account ban like the tweet suggests. This Reddit post mentioned in the linked article confirms this: https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/14kmd07/youtube_cracking_down_on_if_youre_not_paying_them/

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1674427874110246912
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
