uBO does not support If you do not trust the list maintainers, you are free to not use their lists, you can maintain your own. It makes no sense to not trust list maintainers for a specific list and yet use this list. |

We have only one genericblock; And we generichide for webcompat purposes, Where domains aren't serving ads. https://github.com/easylist/easylist/blob/master/easylist/easylist_allowlist.txt#L298 and some previous anti-ad cosmetic checks: https://github.com/easylist/easylist/blob/master/easylist/easylist_allowlist.txt#L379 Nothing "suspect" or anything, given you can look through all our commits, pull requests etc. We'll occasionally prune these when the sites remove the anti-ad cosmetic checks. I'll be happy to re-review these ghides later in the week |

I tried to reproduce the issue when...
Description
I'm starting to see trend in use of
$generichideand$genericblockagain.it breaks a lot of good old, generic web-cleaning rules.
every d.bag only needs to add
@@||d.bag.com^$genericblockand
@@||d.bag.com^$generichideto immediately and effectively disable a lot of rules with very little effort.
it is pretty much just like saying: oh? you've got some rules? na, I don't like that, let me show you some ads regardless.
EasyList would have
quite a lot*some* (edit) of those.and a lot of smaller lists would copy from one to another,
spreading this cr^ap around.
this is essentially abusing the
@@syntax,which was meant to unbreak site's functionality,
it become a kind of a master-switch,
being such a major game changer,
I would very much like (pls) a way to integrate a master switch of our own,
allowing us to prevent that syntax abuse..
...feel free to discuss/re-define this better if you have a better experience with those stuff :|
Ps.
allowing an even stronger override, such as:
*$important,generichide*$important,genericblockwould be hilarious!
thanks!
