  9. Ryan Brown blocklisted #OperaBrowser's affiliate domain (get-gx.net) in #EasyList, citing abuse of Opera's affiliate program.
    They complained to Opera on Twitter/X about affiliate link abuse in February, but received no response.
    In my experience, I have seen many popups leading to Opera affiliate links.
    Ryan Brown did warn the content filtering community prior to this decision.

  11. It has been (almost) 2 weeks since Ryan requested #malwarebytes credit #easylist in the description of their browser extension.
    So far, this is what we have heard from the Malwarebytes representative:
    *crickets chirping*

  12. #malwarebytes now credits #EasyList... buried in their "third party credits" page which is not even mentioned/linked to in the extension description or the extension it's self.

  13. Adblockers blocking anonymous telemetry: @mo8it wrote a blog article on the experience of using #OxiTraffic for privacy preserving telemetry and how this still ended up with my site being featured on #EasyList, a default blocklist of #uBlockOrigin

    I don't have a good solution here but I am pretty sure there is a problem

  14. This really breaks my heart 😭

    github.com/easylist/easylist/i

    I spent so much time polishing just for it to be blocked by an AdBlocker 🚫

    I developed it in the first place to protect !
    I don't collect any personal data or anything that can help identifying a user on the web.
    No IP, no cookies, no User-Agent… How is this bad for privacy?

    It is fully free and open source, you can just read the commented blocked script.

  16. #wasFehlt: Abonnierbare #fedifilter-Listen a la #easylist / #ublockorigin.

    Oder jemand, die*der mir für alle Bundes-, UEFA- und sonstwas für Fußball-Ligen alle Vereins-X-spielt-gegen-Y-Kombinations-Hashtags für meine Blockliste generiert. #SVWFCM usw.

  17. I had a very strange experience earlier, where my browser was blocking any domain name that had a "z" in it. I think it was something to do with #EasyList, one of the block lists that #uBlockOrigin uses?
