Hello all,

I have the problem that eBlocker does not show blocked content.

When I'm on Youtube the bar shows "0 ads" and "0 trackers", which can not be :-/.

After a current call, no entry appears in the history either. The rashes that are displayed, I can not assign.

Does anyone know the problem?

For testing purposes I configured the eBlocker as "expert" and set the DNS server and gateway on my PC to the address of the eBlocker.

The problem is cross-browser in Firefox and Edge.
In parallel I still have the add-on "AdBlockerUltimate" running, which still shows 26 pieces.

Please disable your other tracker blocker tool - and I suspect you will see trackers getting blocked and counted. The youtube ad-blocker works differently and maybe doesn‘t count as blocked ads (yet), so this is not a good case for validation…

Background

eBlocker works on network level and only sees the outbound requests to trackers. So it only can block and count what your other blocker did not block. Video ads are actually skipped by some JavaScript (program code) inserted by eBlocker.

Thanks for your feedback.

I will test it the next few days and report afterwards.

Thank you.
