Ublock: Is it possible to redirect a blocked domain to about:blank or x.com

Created on 7 Mar 2017  路  3Comments  路  Source: gorhill/uBlock

I'm trying to use ublock origin in the chrome browser to block domains so the block screen doesn't appear. Is there a way to make it so nothing appears at all and it just goes to about:blank or redirects to x.com?

Not possible, uBO does not redirect to other URLs.

Early in uBlock's history, @gorhill tried out minimal-content redirection and then determined that it was a bad idea, because of conflicts with other extensions: https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/issues/18

Allowing blocklists to do custom redirects also makes users vulnerable to malicious blocklist authors who could write rules to block legitimate sites (paypal.com) and redirect to forgeries (paypal.com.mysite.com)
