host removal request #2639

Closed dmnc-net closed 2 weeks ago

dmnc-net commented 3 weeks ago

file: hosts#L126835 host: h.seznam.cz (host for loading ad scripts) affecting services: all from the Seznam company, i.e. mapy.cz, email.cz, ...

Reason: Seznam is now offering ad-free products (their whole ecosystem) with a subscription. So on the 1st visit of any product of the ecosystem, the user is redirected to https://cmp.seznam.cz/nastaveni-souhlasu, it is a consent about ads and without choosing (pay or stay with ads) one can't continue. This page checks this file: https://h.seznam.cz/js/cmp2/scmp-cw.js or throws the error.

At this moment I'm whitelisting h.seznam.cz. I don't know if it is possible to negotiate with Seznam about skipping h.seznam.cz for this consent redirect, but I don't believe that.

Thank you for this @dmnc-net.

The domain h.seznam.cz comes to us from upstream at https://someonewhocares.org.

Please make your case by email to Dan Pollock at hosts@someonewhocares.org.

Closing.
