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.

Thanks smed79, works like a charm. Finally some relief from that nonsense.

Posted: **Tue Aug 28, 2018 9:48 pm**

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.

Adblock Plus (keywords ==> "John McCain")

No ads for me.

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

Code: Select all

||smartasset.com/embed^
finance.yahoo.com##iframe[src*="smartasset.com/embed/"]

Posted: **Sun Oct 28, 2018 11:43 pm**

One more:

Code: Select all

finance.yahoo.com###mrt-node-Col2-2-ComboAd

This zaps an empty div in a column along the right side.

I've recently seen ublocked Yahoo sponsored ads even with Ublock.

Some examples:

Code: Select all

http://thehealthdigest.org/4187/type-1-diabetes-overview/?id=91bb553e472be30ff5ff6a7e5919ce92&search=diabetic+diet+plan&utm_source=HD_DT_US_FB_DiabetesDiet&utm_medium=referral

http://rovingpanda.com/search?search=top&cat=0&at=1
http://rovingpanda.com/6841/top-5-wellness-destinations-world?search=Top

Edit:
another examples (after searching for the strings on publicwww):

Code: Select all

https://exploreshops.net/sch/?phrase=top
https://themoneydaily.com/?ads=1&s=cheap+tv+broadband&submit=Search

Suggested rules:

Code: Select all

did this change was committed? there are too many commits now and I couldn't find this, I am still seeing ads though their images are blocked, but the text ads are still there even with Ublock.

Posted: **Mon Jan 07, 2019 11:31 am**

I took the safest elements only; https://github.com/easylist/easylist/co ... 8b0edc2c39

Posted: **Sun Jun 02, 2019 7:06 pm**

Are these ads?

I found it strange, because I read it in english

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

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.

So, adding the above fitre will cause false positive (block posts or/and videos thumbnail).

Posted: **Mon Dec 02, 2019 11:56 pm**

Already blocked in EasyList here https://github.com/easylist/easylist/co ... 29f9fR3089

Posted: **Tue Dec 03, 2019 12:44 am**

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