Hosts: [www.autoblog.com] embedded player not loading

[dnmTX]

Generally the player is hosted on cdnapisec.kaltura.com but cfvod.kaltura.com is the one that redirects to it and it's blocked.Removing it from the lists fixed the problem.Naturally there were several tracking/telemetry domains that cfvod.kaltura.com brought back which were already blocked so i don't see any reason to remain blacklisted.

@dnmTX fixed! This will appear in the next release.

@StevenBlack I've just tried that link @dnmTX have applied, and i'm redirected straight to guce.advertising.com so I would unlist that domain.... just my two cents

[dnmTX]

That is absolute BULLSHIT !!!!! Player is WORKING,no advers are showing up.
@spirillen not sure where you popped up from but STAY AWAY from my posts.PERIOD !!!!!!!

[spirillen]

@dnmTX your language is rather doll, what i post is what is happening, otherwise i wouldn't post it,,, PERIOD !!!!!!! so please be quiet when the adults talk :P So if I have seen that action of being redirected to guce.advertising.com, then that was happening, otherwise i wouldn't have posted it.

That's was is called reporting a result of a test.

Next step is to see what other reports..... not that the you start shouting like a five years old girl ...

The two things your achieving by that kind of behavior is one, you end on users blacklist, two you kill a good descent project like @StevenBlack 's

Happy new year :)

EDIT: just a couple of typo's

[dnmTX]

Steven @StevenBlack you mind locking this one up? Don't really feel like arguing with some degenerate.
Thank you.

I'm seeing the same thing, autoblog.com won't even load without guce.advertising.com. Why did you choose to whitelist this domain now and not when it was blocking video on a tabloid newspaper and educational resources?

[StevenBlack]

@XelNika dude, I have no idea what you're talking about.

We are an aggregator of well-curated sources of hosts files. We merge them, de-dupe the result, and provide optional ways to mix-and-match extensions for things like social media, porn, and gambling, and we make these products available online, refreshed every few days.

This is all in the readme if you have any questions.

[XelNika]

I'm asking why you closed a previous issue regarding this domain with a cheeky comment about websites with sketchy partners, but now you whitelist that exact same domain because it's needed by a website with sketchy partners.
This has nothing do with aggregation, this domain was on your personal list.

The hosts files here aren't about blocking legitimate sites. They are about blocking unscrupulous partners.
I blocked this site 4-months ago because I came upon some dodgy content from this site, and because I can.
Closing.

I allowed cookies,disabled the adblocker, thoroughly checked the webpage code and there is no sign of anything close to guce.advertising.com showing up or present.I don't know what you two are smoking but you need to let it go.
Steve @StevenBlack ,do me a solid and lock this post.Thanks.
