EasyPrivacy (not EasyList) breaks 4OD / Channel 4

Post by crazyskeggy »

Channel 4 (UK)'s 4OD service doesn't play. Pre-video ads are blocked with just EasyList, but when EasyPrivacy is enabled, the videos get stuck on a loading circle. I can confirm that this happens in both AdBlock on Chrome and ABP on Firefox.

See below for the original bug report for extra info, but if you want questions, just ask them here as I am able to repro this.

"The service is currently not available in your area"
Someone with an UK VPN should check this I guess.

Or someone who lives in the UK - you can always ask me to investigate if nobody your end is in the UK - it might even be more legal.
