It's self-promo.

The rationale for including a specific filter in uBO's filter lists is the same as the EasyList/EasyPrivacy policies and also takes into account whether a filter requires uBO's extended filter syntax.

EasyList/EasyPrivacy policies:

Self-promotion (any type of advertising that promotes goods or services that are owned or operated by the domain owner and doesn’t get commercially compensated for by third parties (examples can include new features, new posts, newsletters, subscriptions to printed media products, merchandise etc.)) won't be targeted directly.
