MSN.com - Blocked elements #539
Comments
Hello! Thank you for opening your first issue in this repo. It’s people like you who make these host files better! |
Thanks @THEtomaso, that's a perfect issue report, right there. |
@tyzbit I can't get to msn.com at all. For me personally, that's not a problem, I could live with that 😈 but for some folks... From my location (Central Canada) it wants to carom off I'm going to revert back to the old source, and regen. Sorry @THEtomaso, stand by. |
@StevenBlack i just tried to reproduce it and everything looks good on my end.Looks like this is a uBlock specific rule and nothing to do with your lists.I can also open msn.com with no problems. |
@dnmTX it's mos def the hosts file. I get unable to load on multiple machines, multiple browsers on each. |
@THEtomaso fixed in Release 1..3.2, on master branch now. Sorry for the hassle. |
@StevenBlack well if you planing to revert back to the old @tyzbit's list i'd say don't(i thing we all agreed that need it improvements and the way it was it's useless).This way i can load the new list as a addition to yours without worrying about duplicates.You can also link the new @tyzbit's list in your repo for whoever want's it . |
The MSN site changes continously. |
@THEtomaso still ok |
@THEtomaso just checking here... you understand that "blocking elements" is the whole point of the this hosts file. Elements coming from ad servers are explicitly blocked. We have a new release just now because I couldn't get to |
LOL!
|
@THEtomaso ok i see what you mean.Now the question is did you try after @StevenBlack updated the hosts file(like probably 10 min ago)? Another thing is that i'm almost positive that the blocked element is just another add and nothing important. |
When updating the filter from uBlock Origin, I still get this version:
All of the blocked elements seems to be ordinary MSN articles, but it looks like they're kept in a container which also may be used for ads. |
adnxs.com domain is present at @StevenBlack' lists on many occasions and he didn't remove them.They are there for a reason so updating you filter won't solve your problem.The best thing to do is to make custom rule as you suggested in your first post also advise users in the uBlock forum to do the same as a workaround. |
I've updated my first post, narrowing it down a bit. |
To clarify,
I'm going to state, flat out, if you want Can I close this issue? I plan no further action on this. |
No problem. |
For what it's worth, maybe it could be removed from my list in the name of narrowing its scope? Especially considering it's in the other ones. |
@StevenBlack very much agreed on the "closing" part |
@tyzbit no need, it's a tracking domain for sure |
Thanks, folks. Closing. |
