Description

This site recently went through a redesign. uBO detects and blocks Google ads correctly, but leaves behind words where the ads used to be (e.g. ADVERTISEMENT). It also doesn't block sponsored content part of the site itself, that was not injected by a script from any ad company. Tested on a fresh ungoogled-chromium 129.0.6668.89 profile with uBO MV2 1.60.0 built from source.

The following custom filters fix each of these problems:

cp24.com##.b-ads-custom
cp24.com##.b-ads-custom--leaderboard_large
cp24.com##.b-large-manual-promo
