Notes

We should probably keep this open as it seems that they actively bypass. Have been seeing ads on this site consistently for several weeks now. (Same with Facebook)

quora.com##div[class] > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div:has-text(sponsored)

[okiehsch]

I can't reproduce.

[terrorist96]

I can't reproduce.

I can reproduce on the home page (requires account).

quora.com##div[class] > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div:has-text(sponsored)

Works, but doesn't block ads labeled like Promoted by DuckDuckGo

The filter above was tested as guest user only FYI, also I can't reproduce either.

try quora.com##div[class] > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div:has-text(/sponsored|promoted/)

try quora.com##div[class] > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div > div:has-text(/sponsored|promoted/)

This works. Should be added.

[okiehsch]

quora.com##:xpath(//div[not(@class="ui_qtext_para") and contains(text(), 'ad')]/parent::div/parent::div/parent::div[@id])
seems to work.

[terrorist96]

Yep, but leaves empty template outlines for where the ads would have been while the other one doesn't.

[okiehsch]

quora.com##.u-inherit:has-text(sponsored)
if you are offended by the empty template outlines.

[terrorist96]

That works.

[uBlock-user]

This works. Should be added.

Won't get added unless it's reproducible, the filter posted here are for you to use yourself.

[terrorist96]

Maybe georestricted? @ZaphodBeebblebrox can you reproduce (on the home page; you can use the above posted log in info if you don't have your own account)?

[terrorist96]

@mapx- I emailed you a zip of the website with unblocked sponsored ads.

[mapx-]

Test
quora.com##:xpath(//p[contains(text(),"sponsored ")]/../../../..)

[terrorist96]

That works, but the element that holds the ad is visible. It's good enough.

[terrorist96]

@mapx- I'm seeing ads again.

[mapx-]

send me a new example test case

[mapx-]

test
quora.com##:xpath(//span[(text()='d')]/../../../../..)

[terrorist96]

That works. Thanks.
