  Or Ghostery, which only blocks trackers, but allows privacy-friendly ads.

    "privacy-friendly ads", all ads need to track on some level, so it will only depend on which company you trust more.

  I've found ABP's filters to be sporadic in their effectiveness. Open up the network inspector tab and browse to theguardian.com and others - look through what cross-site requests are still getting through. I detail what I use in this comment [1], but I still set up friends and family with ABP because it's easier to use. I just find I have to manually blacklist a lot of domains to get it to actually work. You only need to make one request to Google for them to know what page you're on.
