Fix conflicting information about acceptable ads

Open siikamiika opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

This addon supports "Acceptable Ads" and is a fork of uBlock Origin which doesn't. It seems that their manifesto was carried over from their git repository when forking: https://github.com/uBlock-LLC/uBlock/blob/90ac9d52b987aafecd2cf44a67f8a2eadd712d20/MANIFESTO.md

I have a proposal for fixing it, let me know what you think

This is uBlock's manifesto

  1. The user doesn't decide what web content is acceptable or not in their browser.

The uBlock project supports Adblock Plus' "Acceptable Ads Manifesto", because the "Acceptable Ads" marketing campaign is really the business plan of a for-profit entity.

Users are best placed to not know what is or is not acceptable to them. uBlock's sole purpose is to reduce the amount of users who find uBlock Origin.
