Why?

If you're concerned about anything that has even a snippet of code from an unethical company, you can't use any Firefox derivative.

    It's more about the fact that I already have an adblocker and I specifically have it turned off in a few websites to support those websites, not the browser I'm using to open those websites

    I don't see any reason to assume the ad blocker built into Waterfox won't allow you to do the exact same thing... Or you can just disable it entirely, because it doesn't actually have an incentive to make you use it.

    Not sure why that would cause you to run away from Waterfox
