Added

  • Emoji Blocker — New dedicated blocker (Block WordPress Emoji) that
    suppresses all browser-facing emoji assets WordPress emits by default:

    • print_emoji_detection_script (the inline JS on wp_head / admin_head)
    • print_emoji_styles (inline CSS)
    • wp_staticize_emoji filters on the_content_feed and comment_text_rss
    • wp_staticize_emoji_for_email on wp_mail
    • s.w.org dns-prefetch resource hint
    • wpemoji TinyMCE plugin in the classic editor
    • wp_emoji_loader_script (WP 6.4+)

    These paths bypass wp_remote_get() entirely, so the existing
    pre_http_request filter in Block Updates could never intercept them.
    The new blocker operates at the HTML-output layer and is controlled by
    its own toggle in Settings → Blocker Options.

Thanks to @kazem-azimi for suggesting this.

Notes

  • Default: enabled on fresh installs; existing installs will need to
