Let me add just one thing: it's very surprising - I could say
shocking - to see the community that made emerge and brought AdBlock+
to the masses now serve ads.

I would be careful with the phrasing. Calling these new tab tiles "ads" is misleading as it invokes mental images of popups and flashing Times-Square-style billboards.

In the case of the sensationalistic tech press, this misinterpretation is quite intentional.

I don't think we're advancing the discussion if we fall prey to that.
