uBlock Origin 1.18.0 - Jan. 24, 2019
------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.18.0>`__.
|
| **New**
|
| Refactoring of the logger code for performance/efficiency purpose -- the
logger output has been decoupled from the
`DOM <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document_Object_Model>`__.
|
| Additionally, these features were added to the logger:
|
- configuration settings
- multiple criteria can be used for when to discard logger entries
- ability to hide some columns
- export-to-clipboard
- the position and size of the logger-as-a-popup window will be remembered
- a pause button to stop the logger from taking in new events
- a new built-in expressions picker to filter the logger output
- show the hostname of the document which caused the resource to be fetched
- show the 3rd-partyness of a resource relative to both the page and the
document fetching the resource
- new visual hint to denote tab-less network requests
- a popup panel button linked to the tab selector
|
| Documentation will be updated eventually to account for those changes.

|
|
| **New**
|
|
| **Per-site JavaScript master switch**
|
| A new per-site switch has been added to the popup panel, which acts as a
master switch for JavaScript for the current site.
|
| This master switch has precedence over dynamic filtering rules and static
filters related to script resources.
|
| Furthermore, when JavaScript is disabled through this master switch,
``noscript`` tags will be honoured on a page (as opposed to when just using
filters/rules to block script resources).
|
| As with some other per-site switches, the default state of per-site
JavaScript master switch can be set in the *Settings* pane, thus allowing to
disable JavaScript everywhere by default, and enable on a per-site basis.
|
| JavaScript master switch rules appear as ``no-scripting: [hostname] true``
entries in the *My rules* pane.
|
|
| **Temporarily toggle per-site switches**
|
| From now on, changes to the state of `per-site
switches <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Per-site-switches>`__ will
be deemed temporary **if and only if** the `overview
panel <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Quick-guide:-popup-user-interface#the-overview-panel>`__
is visible, regardless of whether "advanced user" mode is enabled.
|
| When the overview panel is not visible, toggling a per-site switch will cause
the change to be permanent (i.e. same behavior as before).
|
| However, when the overview panel is visible, toggling a per-site switch will
cause the change to be temporary. In such case, there will be an eraser and a
padlock icon in the overview pane, which can be used to revert or persist the
current state of all the per-site switches.
|
|
| **Cache storage compression**
|
| A new advanced setting: ``cacheStorageCompression``, default to ``true``.
When ``true``, uBO will lz4-compress data before storing it in its cache
storage in supported platforms. Currently, the only supported platform is
Firefox/Firefox for Android.
|
| The cache storage is used for storing downloaded filter lists, compiled
filter lists, selfies. See
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/141 for related
discussion.
|
|
| **Closed as fixed**

| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.16.18>`__.
|
| I decided to create an emergency fix for a bug which was spotted for uMatrix
but which also affects uBO:
| `"My rules tab hangs with cloud storage
support" <https://www.reddit.com/r/uMatrix/comments/8lc9ia/>`__
|
| If using cloud storage, there is a small probability uBO could be stuck in an
infinite loop when reading back the data from the cloud storage, something
which *may* occurs when the following conditions are reunited:
|
- You checked the setting *"Enable cloud storage support"*;
- You saved data into the cloud storage for a given pane;
- The amount (in bytes) of data that was saved into the cloud storage for that
given pane is rather high and such that the "chunkification" of that data
results in a chunk count which is a multiple of 16;
- Large amount of data is more likely for the *"My filters"* and *"My
rules"* panes.
- Sorry for the cryptic explanation, I don't know how else to describe
this.
- You open the pane in the dashboard for which the conditions above are true.
|
| If the bug is triggered, uBO could be stuck in an infinite loop in its main
process, thus preventing it from doing its job.
|
| This is not a regression, but rather a bug that has been hiding in there
since quite a long time.

---------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.16.18>`__.
|
| I decided to create an emergency fix for a bug which was spotted for uMatrix
but which also affects uBO:
| `"My rules tab hangs with cloud storage
support" <https://www.reddit.com/r/uMatrix/comments/8lc9ia/>`__
|
| If using cloud storage, there is a small probability uBO could be stuck in an
infinite loop when reading back the data from the cloud storage, something
which *may* occurs when the following conditions reunited:
|
- You checked the setting *"Enable cloud storage support"*;
- You saved data into the cloud storage for a given pane;
- The amount (in bytes) of data that was saved into the cloud storage for that
given pane is rather high and such that the "chunkification" of that data
results in a chunk count which is a multiple of 16;
- Large amount of data is more likely for the *"My filters"* and *"My
rules"* panes.
- Sorry for the cryptic explanation, I don't know how else to describe
this.
- You open the pane in the dashboard for which the conditions above are true.
|
| If the bug is triggered, uBO could be stuck in an infinite loop in its main
process, thus preventing it from doing its job.
|
| This is not a regression, but rather a bug that has been hiding in there
since quite a long time.

|
| The release version of uBO on AMO is not allowed to update its
```resources.txt``
asset <https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/blob/master/filters/resources.txt>`__.
This means the version shipped with the extension must be used. However, uBO
compile and cache the data in ``resources.txt``, and unless the cache is
invalidated, uBO will keep using a potentially out of date version of
``resources.txt``. This has been fixed by unconditionally invalidating the
cache when a new version of uBO is detected.

uBlock Origin 1.15.20 - April 2, 2018
-------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.15.20>`__.
|
| **Changes:**
|
| From now on,
`behind-the-scene <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Behind-the-scene-network-requests>`__
network requests will be treated and filtered just like any other network
requests. The ``behind-the-scene`` scope will be un-whitelisted when
migrating to 1.15.20+ from an older version.
|
| This will not apply to current installations of the Firefox/legacy version of
uBO, as this would cause serious breakage of the browser given that uBO can
see all network requests in Firefox/legacy. However for a fresh install of
the Firefox/legacy, you will have to manually add the ``behind-the-scene``
scope as a whitelist directive in the *Whitelist* pane.
|
| Keep in mind I plan to drop support for Firefox/legacy once Firefox 60 ESR is
`released on May 7 <https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar>`__. This
will remove a roadblock for simplifying uBO's code base in many areas.
|
| Miscellaneous:
|
- Ability to visually filter out rules in the "My rules" pane in the
dashboard.
- Firefox for Android: improved compatibility with the CodeMirror editor.
- `Responsive design <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsive_web_design>`__
of the dashboard user interface has been improved a bit.
|
| **Closed as fixed:**
|
- `Loading a ``.javascript`` file from a WebExtension's
``web_accessible_resources`` messes with macOS file
associations <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3636>`__
- `2 included filterlists by directive are

|
| **New**
|
| Added a new advanced setting: ``streamScriptInjectFilters``. The purpose is
to tell uBO to use stream filtering to inject scriptlets where possible.
Default to ``false``. Set to ``true`` to bring back scriptlet injection
through stream filtering as was the default before
`1.15.10 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.15.10>`__. A fix
has also been added to resolve
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/1492, which was the main
reason to disable stream filtering-based scriptlets injection in 1.15.10.
|
| Integration of `CodeMirror <http://codemirror.net/>`__ in uBO's dashboard.
Please do not open feature requests related to this.
|
| **Changes:**
|
| **Firefox/webext**
|
| From now on, the beta version will be signed and self-hosted here. The stable
version and the beta version auto-update independently of each other.

|
| I rolled back part of the fix for
`#3069 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3069>`__: scriptlets are
back to being injected using the delayed path. Using stream filtering to
inject the scriptlets raised two distinct issues lately:
|
- Cause still unknown: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3526
- Cause identified -- but no obvious fix possible:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/1492
|
| HTML filtering is still available, i.e. filters using the ``##^`` syntax are
unaffected.

uBlock Origin 1.15.0 - Feb. 1, 2018
-----------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.15.0>`__.
|
| **New**
|
| **HTML filtering**
|
| Ability to remove DOM elements from a source document before it is parsed by
the browser. The platform must support an extension API to modify the
response body on the fly. **Currently only Firefox 57+ allows this.**
|
| The filter syntax is similar to cosmetic filtering, except that the character
``^`` is used before a valid selector to denote that the filter is to be
applied to the source data. Contrary to cosmetic filtering, with HTML
filtering the elements matching a selector are *removed* from the source.
Example:
|
``twitter .com##^meta[http-equiv="refresh"] www.google .ca##^#hplogo boards.4chan .org##^script:has-text(7c9e3a5d51cdacfc)``
|
| Note that procedural operators are supported. Procedural operators which are
senseless to use on source data will be ignored. For example, it makes no
sense to use procedural operator such ``:matches-css(...)`` for HTML
filtering.
|
| Note that HTML filtering essentially brings back support for inline script
tag filtering. I plan on deprecating the syntax ``##script:contains(...)`` in
favor of ``##^script:has-text(...)``. For the time being, uBO will
conveniently convert the old syntax to the new HTML filtering syntax.
|
| Given that HTML filters are to be applied to the source data of a document,
the best way to create such filters is to ``view-source:`` the document and
from there analyze what should be removed. Thus the element picker won't be
extended as a tool to create HTML filters.
|
| In case it's still not clear at point: this is a big deal feature.
|
**Sub-filter lists**
|
| Ability for filter list maintainers to force uBO to load extra filter lists
from within a filter list, using an ``!#include`` directive.
`Example <https://github.com/MajkiIT/polish-ads-filter/issues/4898>`__:
|
| ``!#include adblock_ublock.txt``
|
| When uBO encounters the above directive inside a filter list, it tells uBO to
load the extra filter list and append it to the current one. The main purpose
of such directive is to allow filter list maintainers to be able to make use
of uBO's extended filter syntax, without forfeiting the ABP-compatibility of
their main filter list: ABP will ignore such directive since it will be seen
as a mere comment.
|
| All the details of the new directives syntax is being fleshed out at
https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardBrowserExtension/issues/917. At this
point only ``!#include`` is implemented by uBO, because it solves immediately
a current issue by simplifying the work of filter list maintainers who want
to make use of uBO's extended filter syntax.
|
| **Important:** uBO forbids sublists which are outside the directory of the
main list. Typically, filter list maintainers will just use a single file
name, as seen in the example above, in which case same-origin and same
directory is implicit.
|
| **Changes**
|
| **Logger**
|
| The logger can now be opened in a sidebar on Firefox. Just open the side bar
and "uBlock₀ -- Logger" will be available as a choice.
|
| Given this new ability, I added the following enhancements:
|
- A new entry in the tab selector: "Current tab":
- This will cause the logger to automatically filter out rows which do not
belong to the currently active tab.
- The rows related to behind-the-scene scope are now always shown.
- If you close a tab while "Current tab" is selected, the resulting void rows
will be automatically deleted.
- You can expand/collapse a single row by clicking on the time stamp cell.
|
| Given that uBO's logger is unified, being able to open the logger in a
sidebar means you could end up having multiple views opened for the logger:
only one view will work at any given time.
|
| Mind that there are minor visual issues which I have no control over:
|
- The maximum horizontal space is limited by the browser.
- If you have the logger already opened in a tab or separate window, you will
have to close these for the logger-in-a-sidebar to start working. However
some internal message events are lost in Firefox and as a result the
logger-in-a-sidebar may take over 30 seconds to start working after you
close the logger-in-a-tab or window.
- Firefox: the font size is smaller than dictated in the DOM inspector view: I
have no clue why, uBO's chosen font size is overridden by Firefox for some
reasons.
- Firefox: it's not possible to select text in the logger when it is embedded
in a sidebar.

|
| **Changes**
|
| The filter list *"AAK-Cont Filters For uBlock Origin"* has been removed from
stock filter lists, it is no longer maintained. See
`#3241 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3241>`__. Note that uBO is
equipped to deal with anti-blockers, it's just a matter of users reporting
instances to `volunteer
maintainers <https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues>`__. Everybody is
welcomed to assist in finding solutions to reported filter issues.
|
| The `DOM inspector <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/DOM-inspector>`__
has been improved a bit to make it more usable (see
`#407 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/407>`__). Some refactoring
was necessary to move forward this part, and as a result the DOM inspector is
currently not available on legacy Firefox. This will be addressed only as
time allow. Note that I still consider the DOM inspector to be work in
progress. In case you wonder, the DOM inspector is the best way to visualize
the effects of cosmetic filters on a page and to create exception cosmetic
filters.
|
| The semantic of the ``no-csp-reports`` switch has been changed from *"block
CSP reports from"* to *"block CSP reports to"*. This **does not** change the
behavior of the *"Block CSP reports"* setting. This change of semantic makes
sense, and this also removes an incompatibility with NoScript 10 (see
`#3260 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3260>`__).

users do benefit from Adguard's filter lists.
- "Adguard Spyware Filters" (in "Privacy" section)
- "Adguard Annoyances" (in "Annoyances" section)
- "Adguard Spanish/Portuguese" (see
`#3089 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3089>`__)
- "VIE: ABPVN" (see https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/pull/2600)
|
| Changed:
|
- Instruction URLs added for "RUS: RU AdList" and "CHN: CJX's EasyList Lite"
- So that users can find more about these lists and the recommendations on
how to best use them made by their respective maintainers.
- "RUS: Adguard Russian" and "CHN: CJX's EasyList Lite" will now be selected
by default for new installations.
|
| Removed:
|
- "EasyList without element hiding rules" (not very useful)
- "Reek's AAK" (no longer maintained)
- "uBlock Protector List" (it required Chrom[ium|e], uBO must be browser
vendor agnostic)
- "Fanboy Ultimate" (see
`#3061 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/3061>`__)
- "CHN: CJX's Annoyance" (optional list)
- "EU: Prebake" (no longer maintained)
- "KOR: Fanboy Korean" (marked as "officially unsupported")
- "RUS: BitBlock" (see
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/pull/3019#issuecomment-330076525)
- "VIE: Fanboy Vietnamese" (marked as "officially unsupported)
|
| For whoever has one of the removed list selected, it will be moved to the
"Custom" section (i.e. converted into an imported filter list).

uBlock Origin 1.14.10 - Sept. 13, 2017
--------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.14.10>`__.
|
| **Code review-related fix:** a test was introduced in
`#2950 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/2950>`__, which purpose was
meant to punycode **only** if required for Firefox 52-56. Turns out the regex
used in the test was flawed and this caused the punycoding code path to be
always taken, meaning a pointless added overhead in network request handlers
for when no punycoding is needed. Fixed with
`04a41d8b <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/commit/04a41d8b22276c5177c14337ac2d8fe7d781140c>`__.

------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.14.4>`__.
|
| **Closed as fixed:**
|
- `Firefox 52.2.1: uBlock suddenly disabled due to
incompatibility <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/2945>`__
- As per popular demand, I set the minimum version to 52.0. However be
warned that some features are not available, like the privacy settings
for example.
- uBO/webext should not be used on Firefox for Android 54 and less, because
there is no way to access uBO's UI. This was fixed in Firefox for Android
55, so best is that you move to the latest stable version of Firefox for
Android.
- `A custom filter not working on uBO v1.13.11rc0 / v1.14.0, but working on
1.13.8 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/2938>`__ (regression from
b2e89c9e).
- I tried to find out how many filters from default filter lists were
affected but I could not find any one filter in default filter lists, or
any of the large regional lists.

uBlock Origin 1.14.0 - Aug. 30, 2017
------------------------------------
| See `release
notes <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.14.0>`__.
|
| **Changes**
|
| Due to the many reported issues with the webext-hybrid version of uBO, I am
pushing the pure webext version of uBO to AMO. If this causes all your custom
settings to be lost, you can recover them by following the steps outlined in
the `release notes of
1.13.10 <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/1.13.10>`__.
|
| As required by AMO review process, the Firefox webext[-hybrid] version of uBO
will no longer fetch the latest version of
```assets/filters/resources.txt`` <https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/blob/master/filters/resources.txt>`__
from the project's repository.
|
| The Firefox webext[-hybrid] version of uBO now uses
`indexedDB <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB_API>`__
to store its cacheable assets<sup>[1]</sup>. There are positive and negative
consequences as a result. See issue #2925 for details.
|
| <sub>[1] "Cacheable assets" refer to: filter lists downloaded from remote
servers; compiled
(`pre-parsed <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Launch-and-filter-lists-load-performance>`__)
filter lists; "selfie" (`kind of dated
doc <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Notes-on-memory-benchmarks,-selfies>`__
but "selfie" part is still relevant).</sub>
|
| **Closed as fixed:**
|
- `Use indexedDB instead of browser.local.storage for cached
assets <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/2925>`__
- `Fixed bad
test <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/commit/c31d29c2e3305f7602f90846c539ce8d2933118d>`__
(regression from fdcc951).
- `Generate better regex for hostname-anchored generic
filters <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/commit/b2e89c9ece38ce431560d0d7c6d0f8b02fd0760d>`__
(there are ~4,500 such filters with default filter lists).
