I work for an Ad Tech company named Snigel (snigel.com)

Filter issues are not to be reported on uBO's repo, this is a filter issue, the site tries to load a 3rd-party script from staging-cdn.snigelweb.com/adengine/, which I assume is related to your company. The request is blocked by EasyList:

||snigelweb.com^$3p

I trust that this the filter works as intended (i.e. not a false positive), so closing as wontfix. If you want to dispute the filter, you will have to ask EasyList maintainers: https://github.com/easylist/easylist/issues.

FYI @nmpina28

Across four different sites:

https://www.morewords.com/
https://www.wordhippo.com/
https://www.w3schools.com/
https://www.linguee.com/

I had to add this many rules to unbreak the consent dialog (testing from DE VPN):

@@||snigelweb.com/adengine/*/loader.js$script
@@||snigelweb.com/*/adngin.js$script
@@||snigelweb.com/adconsent/
@@||snigelweb.com/gvl/
@@||snigelweb.com/sncmp/
@@||snigelweb.com/pub/*/snhb$script
@@||snigelweb.com/snhb/
@@||geo-*.snigelweb.com/bp/

the hb in snhb obviously stands for header bidding... IMO it is unacceptable to be asked to allow ad scripts for the purposes of GDPR consent. I'm 99% easylist will agree.

Also without creating any exceptions, don't see breakage either.

You have to clear cookies on one of those sites and visit from an EU ip. You should see a consent popup but it's blocked by EL

Thank you for your fast reply. But this issue should be handled in a more private way. Besides, it's of my knowledge that the CMP should not be blocked in any case.

Thank you for your help on this subject. And for your suggestions. I'll test it again. Can I ask you to delete all your previous comments. Thank you and all that you've explained was very useful
