OUTDATED wrote:1. EasyList is targeted to English sites. While as a general ad blocking list it contains lots of filters that block ads on sites of all languages, no filters will be added specifically for non-English sites - EasyList would become too huge and unmaintainable otherwise.
2. Adult websites are not explicitly dealt with in EasyList or EasyPrivacy. If you wish to block adverts on such sites, try Fanboy's Adult/Dating subscription: http://easylist.adblockplus.org/#specialsub.
3. EasyPrivacy does not block 1st-party tracking if it is
a)"harmless" (e.g. a simple visible hitcounter, 1x1 gifs without queries, stuff that can be obtained from the server logs too) or
b) causes script errors (e.g. hbx.js, s_code.js).
4. EasyPrivacy does not block the initial ga.js and urchin.js from google-analytics.com as blocking it causes problems on many sites (potentially every site using it due to the way it is implemented). The "real" tracking (/__utm.gif) is still blocked.
If you don't like the fact that such a widely used 3rd-party tracking script isn't blocked (which is what you probably added EasyPrivacy for ), just add this filter to your personal rules:As mentioned, this can cause problems on some sites (links not working etc.)!Code: Select all
||google-analytics.com^$third-party
You can now put up with that (there is even a chance that you never visit such a problematic site or use the broken function/link there) but we've found a way to fix this problems with a Greasemonkey script, see https://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic ... 886#p27886
Thanks to Michael who created this sticky first.
