> Adblock Plus comes off the worst of the lot. The company charges publishers fees to allow their ads through its filters, based on criteria about size and placement.
Lie. Adblock Plus is a FOSS ad-blocker.
It has a whitelist of "acceptable ads" that is enabled by default.
You can turn it off, and since the thing is open source, you can clone your own version in which that is the default.
