I've been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you're looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

Imagine shilling a closed source, sold out alternative to UBlock Origin

I'm not an expert on these and didn't realize there was a difference. Did this one sell out?

Yes, they allow certain "non-obtrusive" ads by default. Some people might be fine with this, but it should absolutely be opt-in, and their deal with an ad company is the only reason it's the default.

Unless I heard wrong, I was under the impression that to be considered "non-intrusive" all the ad company had to do was pay adblock Plus.

Ublock Origin is king

No, they need to obey to a specific standard. I think money may be involved but you need also to make sure that ads are non intrusive
