I dislike using the word donate, since they are getting value from their money in not seeing ads. I'd like to come up with better verbiage here; perhaps "by becoming a contributing member" or "supporting member" or something like that.

Since we call them "supporters" in the database and in the site footer, let's use the phrase "becoming a supporter". Since we call Gold "becoming a gold member" I don't want to have to differentiate between a "Gold Member" and a "Supporting Member" or a "Contributing Member".
Let's just use "Gold Member" and "Supporter".

We should use a absolute link so this doesn't break in the future /privacy-policy

This number is much higher. We did 40TB last month.
- Use "supporter" instead of donate - Use absolute links - 2TB -> 40TB

This moves the
ethical-advertising.rstandadvertising-details.rstdocuments into anadvertising/folder. After merging this, we should setup redirects.
