µBlock, a lean and fast blocker

Three new builds of uBO within the past week alone. I sorta noticed but it didn't rise to the occasion of saying anything. Anyone running his beta builds? There's 1.41.7b0 right now.

Oh dear...

edit: typo

 

Did not realize this. uBO has not been updated yet for MS Edge I see.

 

I'm running 1.41.7b0 on Firefox.

 

Anyone now why the Edge version is still not updated?

 

I installed uBO from Chrome Store.

 

Nice. Is that one updated to the latest version? Will check it out. Thanks.

Thanks Krusty. I was looking for 1.41.6. I guess it has not been approved yet.

 

uBlock Origin 1.41.8 Released (February 23, 2022)

Download - 1.41.8 - Firefox (AMO)
Download - 1.41.8 - Chrome (Web Store)
Download - 1.41.8 - Opera (Opera Addons)
Download - 1.41.8 - Edge (Microsoft Edge Addons)
It will take some time until the new version will be available on AMO, Chrome Web Store, etc.

 

Love this add-on (Firefox). I was being annoyed with using sites that prompt me to install their App. I was going to ask about that here but, after a wee bit of research I found AdGuard Annoyances was not enabled, read up on it, turned it on and bingo. Annoyance gone.

 

Guys, I think I have asked this before, but is there any way to block video-ads with uBlock on these kinda sites:

you did, and it was explained that not possible and why.

 

I cannot view the video under the text at https://www.zougla.gr/greece/article/kravgi-mias-elinidas-tou-ntoniesk---o-polemos-exi-dio-prosopa but only after I disable ublock. Any suggestions?

 

Code:

www.zougla.gr * 3p-script allow
www.zougla.gr d31qbv1cthcecs.cloudfront.net * allow
www.zougla.gr disqus.com * allow
www.zougla.gr youtube.com * allow

You don't need to use various extensions to get some privacy results:

UBO + one command line switches are sufficient:

How come that your location is in the middle of a lake?

 

Maybe the centre of Italy?

Thanks!
But in my case the location is not the centre of The Netherlands, but a village ~15km from where I live.

 

How is this accomplished?

 

Maybe this: https://jshelter.org/geo/

“Modified position: the extension modifies the time precision of the time stamps in conformance with the Date and Performance wrappers, and additionally, allows to limit the precision of the current position to hundered of meters, kilometers, tens, or hundereds of kilometers.”

 

That position is incorrect.
My city is about 150 Km from that point as the crow flies.

 

Can you be more specific?
