Dynamic Filtering Rules - 3rd-Party Blocks all content

[adamwilcox]

I have an odd issue that seems to have only appeared in a recent update:

Setting * * 3p block in the Dynamic Filtering Rules blocks all 3rd-party content- which is to be expected. I use this feature, then optionally allow specific domains when pages stop working, (often domain specific cdns). However, recently, * * 3p block seems to block everything- css, images, scripts hosted by the domain I'm visiting, essentially everything that isn't the raw text of the page.

This isn't how uBlock Origin operates, or indeed how uBlock used to operate. As far as I understand it, setting * * 3p block in the Dynamic Filtering Rules should block any domain that is not the domain you're currently visiting from connection, unless you specifically allow it for that domain or globally.

I've turned off all the other filters, so I know its not a rogue 3rd-party filter that is being overzealous.

I am unable to reproduce the issue:

Is it possible that another extension is interfering? Without more information there is little we can do to help you.
What browser are you using? Do you have any other dynamic filter rules? what are they? any specific website where this is not working?

I've worked out what was causing the issue- I'd added shutup.css as a custom filter, which was killing every page. Not sure, why it was the offender, but- at least now I know.

Glad that it is solved I had a look at shutup it seems to be a custom stylesheet not a block list for ublock or adblock. If you still want to use it you can refer to their website on how to install it.

To prevent this from happening in the future, I recommend that ublock does some additional checking to see that the file is indeed a valid block list file.
