[QUOTE="PotentialUser, post: 889993, member: 87776"] Ok good. I was concerned that maybe my interpretation of how Firefox's CNAME blocking looks like graphically on the uBO GUI was incorrect. It seems like some other funny business is going on. Definitely will appreciate any and all help from [USER=78686]@SeriousHoax[/USER] and [USER=82776]@Lenny_Fox[/USER]. BTW, if you two are reading this, this occurs on other webpages as well. For example, on [B]apple.com[/B], uBO Hard Mode (Firefox) will block some Akamai domains ([B]akamaiedge.net[/B]) by default which will break the Apple.com homepage (like it should). It's easy to fix by setting in a noop rule. However, when visiting [B]apple.com[/B] in Edge Chromium and Brave, [B]akamaiedge.net[/B] [COLOR=rgb(255, 0, 0)][B][U]doesn't[/U][/B][/COLOR] appear to load up in uBO (it obviously is loading but Edge/Brave addon isn't picking it up) and the Apple homepage doesn't break. TL;DR: The uBO addon in Hard Mode on Chromium-based browsers is, for whatever reason, not detecting/ignoring some third-party domains and allowing them to load up whereas the uBO addon in Hard Mode on Firefox is detecting and blocking them (like it should!). And this is an issue seemingly un-related to Firefox API giving uBO the the ability to uncloak first-party trackers. This is a completely different (and odd) issue. -- [USER=71262]@oldschool[/USER] - I was only asking because I started using Brave recently as a secondary browser and was considering making it my primary browser. I don't think the affiliate thing was a big deal and after reading your response, I'm glad you don't either otherwise you wouldn't continue to use it. I will probably make Brave my primary browser in the near future. I know the company behind it is for-profit and aren't some white knights out there to save the internet but the way they do business is definitely more ethical than Google harvesting all of their users' data. Bills have to be paid somehow and as long as I can disable features I don't use like BAT and Crypto stuff, all is well. Plus, I just like the aesthetics in Brave more. :sneaky: [/QUOTE]
