Google has shown some Chutzpah to sell their own ad blocker when they are the #1 advertising vendor.

If feel they have enough impunity to get away with that, then it is no surprise that they will try to put other ad blockers out of business too.

Other ad networks might be big enough to bring an antitrust lawsuit against Google (although they probably won't last long enough) but Ad Blocking is such a niche market that they couldn't possibly sue.
