The ability to close the video is missing with Adguard enabled. With Adguard off, you are able to close the video with an (x) at the top right corner of the video. Closing the video helps so you can read the article when you scroll the website. Thanks

@Mezito80 what about to block that player? It seems it plays random videos.

@Alex-302 I think the player is good to have. Sometimes the videos are informative and enhance the overall website. The only adjust would be to close the video while scrolling, because it gets in the way of the text.

Please enable annoyances filter.

Annoyances filters were already enabled. The issue is still occurring so I don’t know why this was closed.

Forbes pages are unusable because of popup that prevents user from doing anything until AdGuard is disabled. See also https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues/51398#event-3176227661 which was improperly closed despite the annoyances filter already being enabled.

To disable Forbes pop-up, modify your User Rules. Just add this:

It cannot be bypassed on iOS. iOS does not support CSS rules.
