Request for info improvement in case of website blocking due to a filter subscribed in AG adblocker

Open SampeiNihira opened this issue 5 months ago • 7 comments

Issue Details

In AG MV3 the website blocking,when present, is done by the browser itself. The information to the user is very meager.

I insert an image where it is written:

1

"This page (web site) has been blocked by an extension".

The Log also contains very little information:

2

Only in the third image do I “suspect” that the website was blocked by the custom filter list I entered:

3

I suspect that any website block caused by a custom filter list provides the user with less information than a filter list chosen from the default filters.

Proposed solution

If the suspicion above is correct,I also propose in the custom filter lists to inform the user,in case of website blocking,with more information. Thank you for your attention.

Alternative solution

If you want to do the same test, you need to subscribe to this list of custom filters:
