Using UBO. Is there a way to block content on yahoo based on a keyword or keywords?
I'm sick of seeing daily stories about the Kardashian clan posted as news.
Can you please post a custom filter that will block stories with the word
"Kardashian" on yahoo. Thanks.

Smed79 what about if you have two words such as "Kylie Jenner"
I tried that on the same filter but it does not work for multiple words.

You sometimes see these in yahoo finance news links. These filters will take care of them:

Are these ads?

I found it strange, because I read it in english

When you search, and nothing is found, those images appear. :roll:

More annoyance for me than an advert.
You can ask _here_, where these images has been waitlisted.

Is there anyway to block articles from certain sites or publishers? I visit Yahoo.com but lately, there are more and more articles from UK based sites like Yahoo News UK, The Independant, The Telegraph, The Guardian, Yahoo Style Uk, etc. I don't understand why US Yahoo feels the need to use UK sources. If I wanted UK news, I'd go to the UK site. I've already chosen "See less from" on those articles but I keep seeing them.

Thanks.

I'm looking at Ad elements with class "Feedback" which are hidden by the EasyList rule:

Code: Select all

yahoo.com##.Feedback
These show up like this (when I turn off adblocking):

http://immortalsunited.com/files/Capture_yahoo.PNG

So the blocking of the element hides these. But the images for these items is still loaded over the network. It would be nice if we can block these too. The images are loaded via a url like this:

Code: Select all

https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/3wXx3vAjGd6c1v3MvEkgXA--~B/Zmk9c3RyaW07aD0yMzA7cHlvZmY9MDtxPTgwO3c9NDQwO3NtPTE7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/http://l.yimg.com/av/curveball/ads/pr/RESIZE_AND_CROP/1200x627/aaf88fc7fcca6a2cd74117891587d6a4.jpeg.cf.webp
Maybe someone can figure out a url pattern filter to block these too.

thanks!!!
-Jim.

Right but the whitelist in AdGuard Base is also whitelisting the ad images.
