pastebin.com search results blocked

Win 7 - Chrome 38.0.2125.111 m (64-bit) - µMatrix 0.8.0.0-alpha.17
Search results do not appear on pastebin.com, even with all hosts files disabled. Results appear after disabling matrix filtering.

Do you use uBlock? I can get the pastebin search results to work in uMatrix with uBlock disabled when the matrix looks like this,

---

With uBlock enabled one of the 3rd party filters blocks ||google.com/cse/.

---

So in uBlock if you add @@||google.com/cse/ to "Your filters" and apply, the pastebin search results show.

Allowing just the following worked for me (assumed 1st-party row is with out-of-the-box settings):

pastebin.com www.google.com script allow
pastebin.com www.googleapis.com script allow

You can paste the above lines into the rules editor:

• Go to "My rules" in dashboard
• Click Edit button on the right-hand pane: a freely editable textarea appear.
• Copy/paste the above lines in the textarea
• Click Save

This should now work.

By the way, uMatrix do not guarantee sites will work fine: it is for advanced users who can figure how to unbreak sites, because essentially uMatrix is a firewall which works in deny-default mode out of the box: it is expected sites will break.

So this means from now on I will close bugs which report broken sites when the sites are broken through normal use of uMatrix.

Tested again: Results appeared after allowing http://www.google-analytics.com.

I get proper results without www.google-analytics.com. See above.

@my-password-is-password Yes, looks like ||google.com/cse/ is a problem if using "Fanboy’s Enhanced Tracking List‎" in uBlock.

[Skibicki]

Sorry about that. Thanks for the filter tip.

@Skibicki No problem. I am not mad at you, this just made me realize I had to warn about this because given how easily uMatrix can break sites, the pile of issues would grow out of control if I didn't clarify this asap.
