it's due to experimental rules in ubo

You could:
- disable that list
or
- add this rule in "my rules" (not my filters ! )
* widgets.outbrain.com * allow
or directly allow in dynamic filtering widgets.outbrain.com
or
report at https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues

[gotitbro]

I wasn't using the Experimental filters but Peter Lowe's list was causing the content to be blocked in my case.

If I allow widgets.outbrain.com won't it cause the OutBrain content to load on websites? And where to add dynamic filters?

[intense]

add this rule in "my rules" (not my filters ! )

Code: Select all

* widgets.outbrain.com * allow

I see, can I not create a static filter for allowing widget.outbran.com only on edition.cnn.com?

read again:

Third column: local dynamic filtering rules, i.e. whatever rule appears in this column applies to the current site only:

Adding that rule doesn't work. The only thing that's worked so far is disabling Peter Lowe's list.

Hi! "Paid Partner Content" is getting through EasyList in Firefox, Chrome, and MS Edge with AdBlock (latest release, filter lists updated today, cookies+cache cleaned). I'm using the following custom filter:

Code: Select all

||outbrain.com^

Firefox and MS Edge have a "Paid Partner Content" in the right sidebar on CNN.com, about halfway down the page. Here are screenshots from Firefox, but it's the same in Edge:

Code: Select all

https://i.gyazo.com/dac0c3f78304ea08ee70f8844e097be7.png

on this page:

Code: Select all

http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/11/tennis/french-open-nadal-wawrinka-decima/index.html

Chrome is the same as on Firefox and Edge, with the addition of this section under the big video near the bottom of the home page:

Code: Select all

https://i.gyazo.com/32b9ec9a08ae5facf996b0b0b77fa4c9.jpg

and this section in the right sidebar on interior pages:

Code: Select all

https://i.gyazo.com/ebf2eb6cee39769d0bb55702f2a5c361.png

Sample page:

Code: Select all

http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/11/tennis/french-open-nadal-wawrinka-decima/index.html

Adblock Plus 1.13.2 is the same on Chrome, with the addition of a third "Paid Partner Content" section just above the big video near the bottom of the home page:

Code: Select all

The issue come from your side, test again in portable version using AdBlock and Adblock Plus.

Thanks, [mention]smed79[/mention] will do.

I can reproduce at will on my side with Chrome 61/ABP. My understanding is that the site creates its own shadowroot, overriding ABP's one, hence this disables all cosmetic filters.

[intense]

yes, there is already an issue (on the bug tracker) about the circumvention on cnn (confidential one..)

I remember some very bad false positives with these filters in the past (withside effects like broken videos) and unfortunately I fear that it's still applicable today...

[rhanajoy]

@smed79 the following filters are blocking the Outbrain crap on cnn.com.
