Brave does more than that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18734999

Adblock Plus should fork its own web browser with built-in Acceptable Ads whitelisting. It'd be more honest than Brave.

Acceptable Ads is anything but honest. They take money to whitelist ads. Including ads from Taboola, one of the worst ad network. https://www.businessinsider.fr/us/google-microsoft-amazon-ta...

Now, I'm not a user of Acceptable Ads, but I don't think either their specific policy of taking money to whitelist AA-compliant ads from large companies, or having that policy apply to entities that have otherwise scummy ads is necessarily dishonest.

- Taboola ads are scummy

- Acceptable Ads is not supposed to allow scummy ads

- Taboola paid to get their ads accepted

- Acceptable Ads is dishonest

If you google a bit, you'll find that the ads that get whitelisted under Acceptable Ads are nothing different from the normal Taboola bullshit. In fact, the whitelist is quite simple: They allow the whole taboola network to operate.
