Using EasyPrivacy results in piwik being blocked, yes, regardless whether EasyPrivacy is used in uBlock, ABP, or whatever other blocker. I suggested you to bring the issue to EasyPrivacy maintainers if you think it's wrong[1], but by all appearances your grudge is solely aimed at uBlock.

Easy privacy also blocks pusher.com which is used by thousands of sites for realtime stuff. It's far too aggressive and should not be on by default.
That's probably the reason it is in EasyPrivacy.
In EasyPrivacy, I see: "||stats.pusher.com^"
When I put "stats.pusher.com" in the browser address bar, I get a page which only says, in plain text:
"stats.pusher.com" is also present in MVPS and hpHosts.
Edit:
The stats.pusher.com issue was brought to EasyPrivacy maintainer: https://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=20744
Easy privacy is not included as the defaults in other tools like abp. Thus ublock does differ here in a big way.
By default ublock blocks piwik and abp doesn't. That is a major difference.
