For the past week or so when surfing on cnn.com the whole screen would become dimmed and I could do nothing on the page. I think I narrowed it down to a window that periodically opens which dims the page under it. I believe that something in easylist is blocking this window but the dimming effect remains. There is an option on this window to say 'No thank you' which might be saved in a cookie to prevent it from appearing again but it appears to be a cookie that doesn't have cnn in it. I don't want to keep all the cookies produced on cnn.com as there are a ton of them.
I took screenshot with easylist disabled. Notice that the page under the 'Do you want the news' window is dimmed. To get this to happen you have to keep selecting articles to read. Eventually the window will appear. It doesn't seem to appear on the main cnn.com page.
I am using uBlock Origin on Firefox Nightly.

Here is a screenshot of the window removed and the page that was under it dimmed:
