[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 870541, member: 82776"] @Rezjor, answer is not that complex to guess. uBlockOrigin's scriplets and inject javascript might be considered out of (functional). scope for an adblocker. Ghostery and Disconnect won''t block first party tracking per company policy. Brave recently has rewritten thier adblocking module. They probably developed it from third-party blocking perspective. When they wrote their new adblock module, content delivery networks started to extend their services to tracking and serving embedded advertisements. This mixing third-party content with first party content became worst when ad delivery networks started to use tricks to morph/disguise third-party content as first party. At the moment preroll, midroll and masthead ads on Google's youtube are served as first party. So when you have designed and setup adblocking and tracking protection from a third-party perspective, your software architecture is down the drain. This hurts especially when you have optimized blocking tokens like Brave has (so it takes less time to apply filtering rules).
