Contributor Feedback

I'm trying to read realclearpolitics.com
Ads are appearing even with adblock turned on. Adblock works fine with Firefox and uBlock Origin.
Could you please help? Thanks and I love the Brave browser!

It's Instart Logic's code, it disguises 3rd-party requests as 1st-party ones (extremely anti-user). See https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/227.

Thank you!

IL...such a drag.

Will check the link, and have it on the list for early this week to tackle.

Appreciate the feedback.
