Brave-browser: Extensions should be able to tell the brave adblock to loosen up to prevent breaking it

Created on 5 Jan 2019  路  9Comments  路  Source: brave/brave-browser

I'm working the extension Universal Bypass, which has to send a request to my server to bypass some sites, which users can disable in the options. However, the brave adblock prevents these requests. So, my suggestion would be to add an API so my extension could simply tell the adblocker to allow these requests:

if(typeof brave != "undefined")
{
    brave.allowRequestsTo("https://universal-bypass.org/*");
}

Just tested this extension, https://favpng.com/ works fine. @timmyRS is everything okay now with Universal Bypass and Brave?

@Andy987456 also tested the link, what exactly is the issue with the web site?

@ryanbr The issue here is with the "Crowd Bypass" feature. You can view example links at https://universal-bypass.org/example-links.

Why hasn't this been fixed yet?

I can install the extension, but when i close and open the browser again the extension is removed

Same issue. Half the links are not bypassed and every now and then the extension gets removed.
It's definitely not a chromium issue considering Edge chromium runs it without any issue.
