How to reproduce ?

Seems to happen on every single page load for me, using uBlock Origin and AAK.

Firefox or Chrome + Adblock plus (easylist, easyprivacy & AAK list) + Greasemonkey with AAK script.

No anti adblock for me, I can not reproduce http://i.imgur.com/GZKltX6.png

How/Where should these filters be added? Tried adding to My Filers in uBO with no luck.

yes, in my filters, see above I added another filter

I still see it even with these 3 filters.

try updating easylist

Adding the filters on the "My filters" tab in uBO fixed it for me. Thanks @mapx- !

So I'm on Chrome with uBlock and I've added easylist, easyprivacy, AAK reek and even tried the AAK script. I've also added the filters above... however I still get the pop up

sure, they changed the trick:

Hi @reek , it seems that last.fm has changed the code they use to generate this warning. The current version of Anti-Ablock-Killer does not block the warning.

In case any Chrome users want a quick workaround, I installed the add-on User-Agent Switcher for Chrome and set it to spoof the iPhone 6. Apparently they don't throw the anti-adblock message on mobile devices.

Thank you very much! Very useful tip.

Looks like they updated the notification to be a less intrusive 22px tall element on the top navbar. It is much less annoying now that does not function as a modal.

To add to @avianbc's point, while not as intrusive, it does partially hide some elements that can be clicked.

I'm not sure exactly how one would go removing it, as it is readded by a script that is inlined into the html. I spent a good 3 or 4 hours today battling it, and had no luck. I do have decent knowledge about how it works though. I'll edit this comment with a detailed write up in a bit.

EDIT:
Okay, I don't know if it will be as detailed as I thought.
Basically it implements it proxies its calls to setInterval and setTimeout. The entirety of it is obfuscated. It stores the position so it can check if it is there or not. None of the elements have classes, and all styles for it are inlined on the elements themselves. The location of the function is in the anonymous object, index 6, I forget exactly the chain of obfuscated names, but if the obfuscation is the same for everyone, the function is called "wb".
