Adding these filters to my adblocker (ublock origin) fixed it: ||www.haaretz.co.il/htz/js/inter.js ||www.themarker.com/st/c/static/heb/inter.js

(the themarker.com one is important for haaretz site too)

[HarSuthep]

thanks !

[bokagit]

GREAT!

[Neter56]

Thanks, that works for me too!

In ublock-origin, I've added the aforementioned 2 filters to the "My filters" tab. But alas - I get a message that "the Haaretz site is blocked to surfers that use a pop-up blocker". But when I put haaretz.co.il in the whitelist of ublock-origin, I get the "your blowser tries to bypass Haaretz's paywall" message all over again! The whitelist is colliding with the filter-list!

[maxter161]

you should also add this to your filters: ||www.haaretz.co.il/htz/js/resp/minified/body-scripts-int.js

[LL25255252]

@maxter161 ,can you please post a link for example where this filter is needed (because after adding @antishok 2 filters everything seems to be OK for me).

[Nirsch1]

I'm using ublock-origin, and I've put the 3 filters in it. This add-on constantly tries to block the ads of Haaretz, which apparently "pisses them off". So when I try to get, for instance, to https://www.haaretz.co.il/gallery/mejunderet/.premium-1.6516857 , I get redirected to https://www.haaretz.co.il/hblocked

[LL25255252]

@Nirsch1 no issues for me with the link you posted (uBO with @antishok 2 filters and without @maxter161 filter).

[Nirsch1]

@LL25255252 have you put Haaretz.co.il into the whitelist of ublock-origin?

[LL25255252]

@LL25255252 have you put Haaretz.co.il into the whitelist of ublock-origin?

No (and I don't have any anti-adblock script/extension. Just uBO).

||www.haaretz.co.il/htz/js/resp/minified/body-scripts-int.js

I would not recommend blocking that file - it contains many scripts that haaretz site uses. Blocking it causes comments on articles to not show up, and probably disables other functionality on the site too.

@Nirsch1 I don't know what to advise, except - make sure you enabled "EasyList Hebrew", delete all cookies/cache of haaretz.co.il

[antishok]

Another thing you can try: manually add a cookie HtzPusr with value 1. You can do it like this:

• Browse to haaretz.co.il
• Open your browser's devtools JS console tab (F12 to open devtools)
• Run this line of code (paste it to the console and press enter): document.cookie = 'HtzPusr=1'

It might fool their code to make it think you're a paying customer. Seems to actually work, from my quick test

EDIT: for themarker.com the cookie name is TmPusr

Ho my Gosh, @antishok, it actually works! uBlock feels like it filters the ads on Haaretz, but it actually doesn't! Double cheers! :+1::+1:

[adibiton]

After adding this two lines to ublock origin filter

||www.haaretz.co.il/htz/js/inter.js ||www.themarker.com/st/c/static/heb/inter.js

This page works: https://www.haaretz.co.il/gallery/mejunderet/.premium-1.6516857

However this: https://www.themarker.com/dynamo/cars/.premium-1.6529288 doesn't

Anyone has any clue?

[Nirsch1]

Have you followed @antishok's instructions? i.e. https://github.com/yuvadm/free-haaretz/issues/32#issuecomment-426482052

[adibiton]

Have you followed @antishok's instructions? i.e. #32 (comment)

Yes, is it working for you? (i'm getting 'for reading the full article buy...')

[LL25255252]

Everthing works fine for me with @antishok 's instructions. However there's an issue with Themarker comments. No need for me to disable uBO on Haaretz but if I want to see the comments section on TheMarker I do need to disable uBO. Tested on @adibiton link - https://www.themarker.com/dynamo/cars/.premium-1.6529288

[antishok]

@adibiton it's working for me. have you installed the latest version of free-haaretz? previous versions used to only work on haaretz You can try to do my steps from the comment above (adding the cookie manually) but on themarker.com instead of haaretz.co.il

@LL25255252 comments working fine for me on themarker, fwiw

[antishok]

Oh actually @adibiton, it's a different cookie name on themarker.com - cookie is TmPusr. So on themarker.com you can try running: document.cookie = 'TmPusr=1'

After upgrading to the latest version - it's working!!

[LL25255252]

@adibiton can you see the comments on themarker page without disabling uBO (as I said before I can see them only if I disable UBO on themarker.com) ?

[adibiton]

@LL25255252 yes, i can see comments on themarker page without disabling uBO

Hey, guys! A new blocking problem has recently appeared:

1. On Firefox (Windows 10, Windows 7 and Android), When using the "uBlock Origin" add-on, trying to open a paywalled article leads to a redirection to the page https://www.haaretz.co.il/hblocked .
2. The adding of the following lines to "uBlock Origin" -> "My Filters" doesn't help: ||www.haaretz.co.il/htz/js/inter.js ||www.themarker.com/st/c/static/heb/inter.js
3. The adding of the following cookies to F12 of Windows-Firefox doesn't work either: document.cookie = "HtzPusr=1" document.cookie = "TmPusr=1"

Any suggestions?

[Nirsch1]

I've added "EasyList Hebrew" to the filter-list of "uBlock Origin", and the problem seems to be solved! This can be done like so:

1. Go to https://filterlists.com
2. In the search bar enter: EasyList Hebrew.
3. In the "EasyList Hebrew" line, press on the button "Details".
4. Now press "Subscribe" and "OK".

That's it! (Take a look at https://github.com/yuvadm/free-haaretz/issues/32#issuecomment-426475967 as well).
