Yeah, that's why nobody uses AdBlock Plus anymore.

Firstly, the "randsom" refers to advertisers who wish to be whitelisted within Adblock Plus. If you're not wanting to whitelist your website, it won't matter. Unless you are, in which case, screw you.

Secondly, if you ACTUALLY read the Adblock Plus documentation, this whitelisting can be disabled, so you just see what you allow:

"On Firefox: click the Adblock Plus icon and choose Filter Preferences from the menu. Uncheck "Allow non-intrusive advertising" and you are done."
