[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 92963, post: 958094"] [B]Tip: use uBlockOrigin TLD (Top Level Domain) increased flexibility[/B] As with some other uBlock innovations, they are result of copying innovations from Adguard (e.g. removeparam option to strip tracking parameters from URL's). Since second quarter of 2020 uBO has implemented the * (all) to be used in TLDs. This simplfied rules for Google domains (e.g. ||blockrule$domain=google.com| google.ca|google.us|etc, could be replaced by ||blockrule$domain=google.*). Mister Gorhill being a perfectionist, always reviews his code to to implement these improvements in other area's of his content blocker also. In this case the 'dynamic' uBO rules. A feature of uBO is the per website switch to enable or disable javascript on a website. This javascript switch can even be used (like the popup, large media files and cosmetic filterering and fonts switches) without the need to enable advanced mode. Reversely fans of medium and hard mode blocking can use the below tip on top of their medium/hard mode advanced blocking. So this can be used by both medium and advanced UBO users. [B]___ My Rules example ___ [/B] no-scripting: * true no-scripting: com false no-scripting: edu false no-scripting: net false no-scripting: gov false no-scripting: org false no-scripting: au false no-scripting: ca false no-scripting: ie false no-scripting: nz false no-scripting: uk false no-scripting: us false [B]___ Explanation ___[/B] The first rule (no-scripting: * true) disables first-party and inline scripting system wide. The 2nd to 6th rule allows scripting for the Top Level Domains COM, EDU, NET, GOV, ORG The 7th to 12th rile allows scripting for the Country Codes AU (Australia), CA (Canada), IE (Ireland), NZ (New Zeeland), UK (United Kingdom) and the US (USA). [B]__ In Action __[/B] All websites with a TLD matching the 'no-scripting false' rule above will be correctly displayed. So when your DNS does not block bad TLD's AND you prefer an easy way to reduce the internet attack surface this might be a nice uBO feature to use (when you are redirected to a malware XYZ website, scripting is disabled). [ATTACH]260647[/ATTACH] [B]__ Visual feedback uBO __ When this script blocking is on, the number of items blocks are in a purple background in stead of grey (normal mode) or red (advanced mode). Simply by clicking on the </> icon you an enable scripts. [ATTACH]260650[/ATTACH][/B] [/QUOTE]
