More g00 stuff...

Browser: Chrome Version 58.0.3029.110 (64-bit) + ABP
Filter lists: EasyList & EasyPrivacy
Additional extensions: None
URL: https://www.thoughtco.com/continents-by-area-and-size-ranking-1435142
Location: CA, USA

This is identical to the one I reported earlier for cnet (e.g. viewtopic.php?p=117729#p117729)

In both cases there are numerous connections to host names (e.g. tu9srvbirvvtmtuka2v5bwfrzxiuz28uc29ub2jplmnvbq00.g00.*.com)

@smed79, wonder if this is enabled based on geographic location which may explain why you were not seeing these ads. Can anyone else confirm? Thanks.

Cleared the cache, added the above rules, restarted Chrome and the ads were blocked minus the white space left behind.
Next I added the rules for cnet to check if it would work? It didn't and I went back to thoughtco.com which worked the first time but now it doesn't.

Checked again and the filters above still working for me on thoughtco.com (no g00 redirection or ads).
... but for cnet.com I still can not reproduce.
