Maybe we can detect such situations and do some form of throttling. But in the uBlock Origin example, it is difficult for Ghostery because the scriplet non-stop triggers DOM modifications....
Confirmed that the problem can be reproduce with the standalone extension of the adblocker: https://github.com/ghostery/adblocker/tree/master/packages/adblocker-webextension-example Same steps: * `yarn start:firefox` * Install uBlock Origin and leave only the following rule:...
An experiment that implements throttling in the adblocker engine can be found here: https://github.com/ghostery/adblocker/pull/3913 I could also confirm that heise.de is affected. And also, that having dev tools open makes...

With the new uBlock Origin version, I can no longer reproduce it on reddit.com
We recently opened all the data: https://github.com/ghostery/trackerdb. It's now the recommended place to start and will replace the trackerdb.sql file in this repository (https://github.com/whotracksme/whotracks.me/issues/315). In trackerdb releases, we export the...
We recently found a problem in the aggregation code (at one place, it used a bad default of 6,000 instead of 10,000). Starting with the March data (2023-03/us/sites.csv), the generated...
Should be addressed. Feel free to reopen if not.
