Description

After logging in and updating some things, USPS site has a loading page where it says verifying identity that gets stuck at 99% when UBlock origin is running, at least on mobile, have not tested desktop. Some other people have mentioned this same issue on reddit in the past month, but no issue on the github about USPS site exists aside from another old issue on a different page whose attempted fix I happened to add to my filters but did not do anything for this either. Reddit comments about this issue are here: https://old.reddit.com/r/usps_complaints/comments/1d6mwdu/error_signing_up_for_informed_delivery/lh60xpj/ Disabling UBlock Origin and refreshing page allows page to reach 100 and then move onto next page, so something is being blocked that shouldn't be.

Other extensions used

Absolute Enable Right Click and Copy (for searching terms from pages that like to go 1984. Not the cause of USPS page not functioning.) DeArrow(Only affects youtube thumbnails and titles) TWP - Translate Web Pages (none set to default so does not affect this site) OldLander (does not affect this site) Old Reddit Redirect (does not affect this site) Reddit Enhancement Suite (does not affect this site)

[mapx-]

• open the uBO's logger: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/The-logger
• repeat the steps to get the issue
• go back into the uBO's logger and then copy and paste here all blocked requests

Sadly cannot do so because website does not trigger the verifying identity form for me as I already verified it the morning after reporting(Funnily enough trying to access the page when not required to has the USPS website generate an error code that is literally just the current time's timestamp) Would need someone else to try set up USPS informed delivery for form to appear again, but most addresses in the US are eligible so hopefully shouldn't be too hard to find someone.

@TopPercentageRattata closing for now, when you'll be able to reproduce the issue again just follow the steps above and post the info here (without opening a new issue)

Umm I won't be able to unless I literally change addresses IRL which might not happen for years. Almost anyone in USA can attempt to sign up for USPS informed delivery on the site with uBlockOrigin enabled and the issue will happen as seen with all the reddit comments on the issue
