Using Google's advanced operators disables full-range uB blocking
Opened this issue · 0 comments
{Not sure when this started; could have been around for quite awhile, but coincidentally new ruleset grammar was released recently - #490 }
Suspicion: when using multiple G's advanced operators e.g. site:
, uB gets disabled or limited from full blocking. But Highlighting still works.
Note: &safe=off
might not be relevant to the troubleshooting. I'm using it as part of normal convenience.
Note-note: feel free to change the Title of the Issue.
Expected Behavior
Any of the following filters should work...
/^https?:\/\/www\.reddit\.com\/r\/(csinterns|personalfinance|techsalesjobs|legaladvice)\//
/reddit\.com\/r\/(csinterns|personalfinance|techsalesjobs|legaladvice)\//
/(csinterns|personalfinance|techsalesjobs|legaladvice)/
path *= "personalfinance"
Actual Behavior
And infact they do -- but only when Highlighting e.g. @1path *= "personalfinance"
But blocking does not work, e.g.
path *= "personalfinance"
/(legaladvice)/
Steps to Reproduce the Problem
- Disable uBlock, Tampermonkey
- Use
path *= "personalfinance"
or/(legaladvice)/
or any of the filter formats above - use above Google search query, or any using G's advanced operators
- Switch to
@1path *= "personalfinance"
or@1/(legaladvice)/
Extra tests...
-
Use separately:
path*="realtors"
@1path*="realtors"
-
Try these Gsearches...
Seems to work normally:
https://www.google.com/search?q=realtors
Sort-of works - blocking is missed on a result with /realtors/
in the Path (the reddit one):
https://www.google.com/search?q=intitle%3Arealtors
