It's self-promotion

Doesn't that count then?

• I read and understood the policy as to what is a valid filter issue

The rationale on whether to include a specific filter in one of uBO's filter lists is the same as outlined by EasyList/EasyPrivacy policies

https://easylist.to/pages/policy.html:
Self-promotion should not be specifically removed.

Didn't quite realise it was self-promotion. Assumed it came from an external source as it's where ads would usually be placed. Thanks.
