False listing as "unwanted"? #183

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When I go to domain www.forbes.com, it is blocked as "unwanted" by ScriptSafe.  
I searched all databases that ScriptSafe says it's querying, and the main 
www.forbes.com domain is not listed in any of them. MVPS lists some other ad 
and tracking subdomains like ad.forbes.com and vs.forbes.com, but not 
www.forbes.com or forbes.com.  I seem to see a LOT more sites getting blocked 
this way that seem odd.  Could there be some issue with the way ScriptSafe is 
interpreting these databases?

Another example - www.guardian.co.uk.

www.salon.com also seems to exhibit this behavior.  The common thread seems to 
be that there do exist some subdomains under the main domain that should be 
blocked, but the entire domain is instead getting blocked.
