You can add your own filters in
~/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/data/adbloc/blacklist (or whitelist).

 There is a script in the epiphany-extensions source tree which
downloads the newest FilterSet.G list and formats it as PCRE regular
expressions (for use in adblock). It would be ideal to provide an
automated way to accomplish that task. The script is an ideal starting
point.
