“meh” to the sentiment that a meme/message/whatever doesn’t need to be accurate as long as you agree with the sentiment. Lots of people believe a lot of utter lies because of that attitude.
But it is kind of spying, they are sharing it with 1,300 paying clients. That can then do whatever with it.
Do they spy more elsewhere? Yes, does that mean this isn’t spying, not necessarily. I don’t think you made the case for why this doesn’t qualify either.
Detecting that your client failed to load an ad, and displaying a message attributing that to an ad-blocker, is not, in my book, anything like “spying”. What else the website gets up to is not relevant to whether that is spying, which is what the original post said.
