Description

Comments section is getting blocked. This just started for me today. Yesterday it was ok. If I turn off uBlock I can see comments. I am using Firefox private browsing mode. Disabling Enhanced Tracking Protection for the site does not help. I also had Privacy Badger enabled but removing that did not help either. I had both of them disabled with no help to the issue. The issue also occurs when not using Firefox private browsing mode.

After investigating this a little I found that the issue is caused by the default enabled EasyList filter.
