Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:90.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/90.0

Steps to reproduce:

Visit https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browsers/compare/brave/

Actual results:

This page endorses Adblock Plus in the sentence "That is, unless you install one of the extensions specifically designed for that purpose."

Expected results:

Adblock Plus does not block all ads and accepts bribes from advertisers. It is not recommended by most experts. uBlock Origin is the preferred solution at this time:

https://ublockorigin.com/

Supporting this conclusion, uBlock Origin is a "recommended" add-on for Firefox, while Adblock Plus is not.
