[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 937842, member: 82776"] I initially used the format website.com^ to block a website (also because this was used in the AdGuard filters and I thought it was good practise). Because thi did nt seem to work consistantly, I replaced the ^ with $all parameter from uBO which AG also digested correctly (in UBO it had the advantage that it also blocked popunders when using $all). Now this bug is fixed [URL='https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/1501']Impossible to add explicit exception for implicit strict blocking · Issue #1501 · uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues[/URL] I finally understand why some of my rules did not work in uBO. (y) with uBO facilitating the removeparam from AG (paid) and using Edge anti-tracking in default (which blocks cookies), AG block cookie's advantage is not so relevant anymore, therefor I am tempted to change from AG to uBO again. mhhh maybe this weekend :) Note: uBlockOrigin has a scriptlet called cookie-remover. This is still under development. Last time I checked, it did not actually remove the cookies, but set an expiration date in the past (which makes the cookie inactive/harmless) and I only managed to delete cookies from the main domain (the one you seen in address bar). Maybe it was my lack of knowledge or the lack of documentation (it is still in development, so maybe they don't want people to use it yet). so UBO's cookie-remover scriptlet is not up to par with AG''s $cookie option (AG's cookie is also easier to use as it follows regular AdBlock syntax).
