Prerequisites

• I verified that this is not a filter list issue. Report any issues with filter lists or broken website functionality in the uAssets issue tracker.
• This is NOT an issue with YouTube, Facebook or Twitch.
• This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
• I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
• The issue is not present after disabling uBO in the browser.
• I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I am reporting is not normal behavior.

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

• uBO is the only extension.
• uBO uses default lists and settings.
• using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

In the context of ublock origin, what does 3rd party frame blocking mean?

Obviously, it blocks 'frames' from domains that i am not visiting right now, but what is a frame in this context? Like a data packet? Or a div?

I tried looking through the wiki but that doesnt explain what a frame is, only how ublock deals with them.

A specific URL where the issue occurs.

doomworld.com

Steps to Reproduce

I wanted to check miniwad and the youtube video was a 'frame' and on other sites unblocking youtube would let it play but not here. For some reason on this site i also had to unblock 3rd party frame blocking

Frame is a website embedded in other website. Often video players on various pages are YouTube frames.
