[firefox] no ruleset for wikipedia? #12456

Closed ghost closed 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

Whenever I'm accessing Wikipedia via firefox there seems to be no https ruleset for it. Strangely enough, when I access Wikipedia via chrome, there IS a ruleset for it.

Is it normal?

ghost commented 7 years ago

Preloaded I guess.

Can you provide a specific URL where we can reproduce this observation?

You have an obsolete version of HTTPS Everywhere installed on Firefox. Update please.

ghost commented 7 years ago

It happens pretty much on any wikipedia page. For the sake of the argument I will provide this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

My https everywhere is definitely up-to-date (I just uninstalled and installed the extension to be sure). It even has the '2017.8.31' date in the name.

For the record I have the latest firefox 55.0.3 version. I also use ublock origin if it makes any differance (on both firefox and chrome).

There is nothing that should trigger a ruleset on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page. The issue is definitely on chrome side. Is HTTPS-Everywhere up-to-date on chrome?

(I can't reproduce on chrome by the way).

The extension is up-to-date on chrome as well.

Bisaloo commented 7 years ago

Can you tell me the name of the active ruleset?

As far as I can tell, only domains on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page are wikipedia.org and wikimedia.org, neither of which has a ruleset.

ghost commented 7 years ago

The ruleset is simply called 'wikipedia' under the stable rules section.

Update: It looks the same as the one on the screenshot from google web store here https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/https-everywhere/gcbommkclmclpchllfjekcdonpmejbdp?hl=en

That shouldn't happen. The only slightly related ruleset is Wikimedia but it shouldn't even be enabled.

Is that possible that you created this rule yourself? Do you see a tooltip saying user rule when you hover the ruleset name?

Other than that, I am clueless. Let's just wait for someone else that could have another idea of what's causing this.

You are right, it was a custom rule (created by my brother who uses chrome). Sorry for wasting your time. Please close this issue.
