Adblock plus is now in bed with the advertisers(bought off). The best one out there is Ublock Origin.
If your talking about the Acceptable Ads Initiative, Ublock subscribes to it also.
This movement was created to hopefully prevent an all out restriction on sites if you use ad blockers. As has been noted previously on this thread, many sites will now prevent use of the site if you have an active ad blocker. The ads, whether you like it or not, is what keeps most of the web free and open. The initiative is a list of rules and guidelines about ads which is supposed to control the abusive practices that gave rise to the need for blockers. As with any voluntary program it doesn't always work the way we like.
It is a fact that ads are here to stay unless the web goes to pay for play everywhere. Which will be worse?
