Better blocking for popup and redirect ads.

Fixes

  • Ad redirects are stopped. Some sites send the page you're on to an ad, either on their own or right after a tap. Eddy now stops any tab, not just popups, from going to a known ad server. You stay on the page you were reading.
  • Blocked links show a warning. If you tap a link to a domain on your blocklist, Eddy shows a "blocked" page instead of loading it. Tap Go back to return, or Open anyway if you meant to go there.

New

  • HaGeZi pop-up ads list. A new default filter list aimed at popup and popunder ad networks, which change domains too fast for the general lists. It turns on by itself and downloads with the next filter update.

eddy-0.6.11-beta.apk is the normal build. eddy-0.6.11-beta-fdroid.apk is the same app without the developer-tools panel; F-Droid rebuilds it from source and checks it matches. Both are signed with the same key as previous releases, so you can switch between them.
