Just noticed that b-c is being detected as an ad-blocker on an NYT article (using 0.55.3) and b-l (using 0.23.205) is not. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/12/opinion/new-york-primary-election-go-vote.html

I have the opposite problem on CNET today: All non-ad graphics are blocked. Fresh install of Brave Core on Windows. Images come back if I take shields down. Version 0.55.3 Chromium: 70.0.3538.12 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)

This is working with Brave 0.57.1

It's not working fully, it's just only reproducible on some machines.
