Not blocking ads anymore?

ZekePolarisBSH commented 2 years ago

Prerequisites

[X] I verified that this is not a filter issue (MUST be reported at filter issue tracker)
[X] This is not a support issue or a question
[X] I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue
[X] The issue is not present after wholly disabling uBlock Origin ("uBO") in the browser
[X] I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I report is not a normal behavior

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

[X] uBO is the only extension
[X] uBO with default lists/settings
[X] using a new, unmodified browser profile

Description

It is allowing "adult content" that isn't even adults. Possible child porn being allowed by this addon. The support email doesn't give support it just spams me... Spamming is illegal where I am from so I might just report it.

A specific URL where the issue occurs

Every site I go to.

Steps to Reproduce

Start browser? Load any site? That's it.

Expected behavior

Should block ads.

Actual behavior

Allows all ads to hit.

uBlock Origin version

Up to date? 1.41.4

Browser name and version

Using Google Chrome as it is the only browser that even works in 2022. Up to date as well. Versions don't really matter though. As being up to date is the cause of these issues. Version 98.0.4758.102 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Operating System and version

Windows 10, no one should use 11. Version10.0.19044 Build 19044, but this issue been happening before this version.

If it does happen on every site, including e.g. bbc.com, there's a 99% chance that another extension in your Chrome setup is pushing those ads (and 1% chance of a system virus or router virus). Open up chrome://extensions/ and turn off every extension except uBlock Origin, and see if that makes things better.

A specific URL is MANDATORY for issue happening on a web page, even if it happens "everywhere"

Millions of users user uBO daily and we don't see huge amounts of reports of it being broken. Something is bad on your side, so please describe your issue more thoroughly.

It is allowing "adult content" that isn't even adults. Possible child porn being allowed by this addon.

What? Are you sure, you are talking about uBO? No ad-blocker is blocking adult content by default. We don't know what sites you are visiting.

The support email doesn't give support it just spams me... Spamming is illegal where I am from so I might just report it.

Maybe because it's for reporting serious security issues, and your bug report does not look like filled by security researcher?

You kept replying to an automated email which first sentence was "Do not reply, this is an automated response".

Find another blocker, given those emails you sent me, I don't want to interact with you.

@ZekePolarisBSH Support info from the Support Panel? Screenshot(s)? URL? We can not fix issues without your providing more information

Also, try installing Firefox (or Tor Browser), installing uBo in it, and testing. It is possible this is caused by Chromium's lack of CNAME uncloaking (and a new browser has no extensions so those can't interfere) If you still see ads, I'd recommend you download something to scan your system for malware (i.e. https://malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner) or just backup your data and reinstall Windows

Malware can back from UEFI.

Malware can back from UEFI.

Evidence? While UEFI malware might be possible, I doubt that it would be used against random home users (this is based on opinions I have seen from malware analysis's) It seems unlikely that the OP has been the victim of an advanced targeted attack
