Adblock started allowing certain ads through:

"Starting with version 2.0, Adblock Plus started allowing "acceptable
ads" by default,[72] with acceptable ad standards being set by The
Acceptable Ads Committee.[73] They charge large institutions fees to
become whitelisted and marked as "acceptable", stating "[Adblock Plus]
only charge large entities a license fee so that we can offer the same
whitelisting services to everyone and maintain our resources to develop
the best software for our users." on their about page.[74]"

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adblock_Plus

uBlock Origin doesn't play that game.
