pre version of policeman removed the chrome origin and destination ,but it seems that it blocks them by default. now flashgot integration with jdownloader doesn't work with policeman enabled but works with it enabled but suspended (suspend operation)

please fix this.

Not sure, but try install ruleset from post https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/212#issuecomment-118445861. This fix many problems for me with browser/addons (https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/212, https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/195, https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/187, https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/186), in dev build of Policeman.

no. my default rule is blocking unknown requests(whole reason for installing thsi addon was selective permission and seeing what was requested) the chrome rules are ignored so they are by default get denied and I can't fix that even by with adding rules. but thanks for answering.

Policeman allow chrome requests by default now (see in source of "default" ruleset). Are you have enabled "Compatibility and Workarounds" ruleset? That's contain some fixes for addon. But, anyway, I recommend you migrate to uMatrix or RPC from Policeman, because soon it stop working properly (https://github.com/futpib/policeman/issues/229).

i use the default blocked in policeman and if policeman by default in new version allows all to connect and there is no way to fix my issue without enabling this default then I have to remove this addon cause it would be just a blacklist addon (allow is default and block selected) instead of white list ( block is default allow selected).

one thing the other addons don't have is the requests list that it shows in the addon button and I don't have to refresh and use debug like umatrix addon to see them (with complete addresses ). sometimes it is not convenient and umatrix and ublock way is more convenient at that times but this helps me to see requests complete address (i need those per need ,not always ) without opening a developer like tab and refreshing the tab. but if this addon is being dropped then I have to go umatrix way.
