More reports of this ad not being blocked: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issue ... t-77463504

Reportedly, this works (I can't get that ad myself):

Code: Select all

answers.yahoo.com###ya-center-rail > [id^="ya-q-"][id$="-textads"]
It is suggested also to block the resource pulled into the iframe:

Code: Select all

answers.yahoo.com/ros/
But I can't tell if that would break something good, as I can't get that ad myself.

Are you trying to view the pages while logged-in? (The ads only appear for me when logged-in.)

The filter you provided seems to work fine on the pages that I have tested. Any EasyList maintainer care to chime in if this could be added to the list?
