uBlock Origin 1.22.3b15

 

---

New:

Static filter option elemhide as per ABP semantic

The elemhide option is now fully supported, rather than being an alias of generichide. The elemhide

option will be internally converted into two filters, generichide and specifichide. There have been cases

raised by filter list maintainers where specifichide would be useful. Additionally, the filter options

elemhide, generichide and specifichide can be aliased with ehide, ghide and shide respectively.

(generichide appears over 1,300 times just in "uBlock filters".)

Closed as fixed:

• Ignoring ping filters
• Prevent uBO from being reloaded mid-session
  • A new advanced setting -- extensionUpdateForceReload -- can be used to override this new behavior.
• Comply with new security requirements for Chrome
• Add advanced setting to control logger popup type
