Prerequisites

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

  • uBO is the only extension.
  • uBO uses default lists and settings.
  • using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

After doing a manual update today, the following filter had an orange-yellow triangle symbol with an exclamation point briefly appear, then the filter was removed from Filter lists:

uBlock filters – Resource abuse

I ran a portable Firefox browser with defaults and added only uBlock origin, and the same thing happened when hitting Purge all caches then Update now.

I was able to add the filter back by using the "Import" option at the bottom of Filter lists. I added this line:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/filters/resource-abuse.txt

After doing Purge all caches then Update now, it then changes to this (under Custom):

uBlock₀ filters – Resource abuse

If this filter is supposed to be removed, can someone please state the reason why?
