I didn't know EasyList had advanced AI to differentiate between 'one-line, textual "sponsorship" banner' ads and other ads, nor that its stated goal was to block some ads but not others. I'm quite sure if the latter ever becomes true, it'll stop being used by reputable ad blockers. Until then, the list is working correctly in respect to this ad like it works correctly in respect to other ads.
