Crapware-unblocker "ghostery" is part of that "acceptable ads" (pay-to-be-unfiltered) scam. Why does @mozilla recommend that load of crap? 
Adblock, Adblock Plus, and "uBlock" from ublock.org (1) are shit as well
The only decent ad-and-tracking blocker out-there that's still maintained is R. Hill's uBlock Origin.

These “adblockers" devs clearly state they are part of "acceptable ads program", they promote their shit toward the ad-industry

I'm not wasting anymore time to "justify" obvious thing such as ads and tracking being inherently unethical. There is plenty of publicly available info about it, for those who are actually interested in learning more about it, rather than just trolling about "I don't know you, I want an official source"
1. There's no such thing as "ethical" ads and fuck anyone who claim there is. There's no such thing as "online ads without tracking". If they could put spyware in paper ads, they would…
