adsninja.ca partially blocked

[Rudxain]

I visited https://www.xda-developers.com/* (where * is the blog-post name) on Firefox 129 for Android, cdn.adsninja.ca wasn't completely blocked.

• all filter lists enabled (Both AdGuard and EasyList have lines explicitly containing adsninja.ca)
• Medium Mode
• no-scripting: * true (logger not needed)

I've found this source-code from the blog page (I removed indentation and extra \n):

<link rel='preload' href='https://cdn.adsninja.ca/adsninja_client_style.css?v=934' as='style' onload="this.onload=null;this.rel='stylesheet'">
<noscript><link rel='stylesheet' href='https://cdn.adsninja.ca/adsninja_client_style.css?v=934'></noscript>
<!-- Ad Header End -->
<!-- GLOABL JS VARIABLES -->

Yes, the comment says "GLOABL" (typo). But it seems to refer to code below it.

I suspect 1 or more stylesheets went through, that's why I included the snippet.

I know it's possible for a static filter to override another, thereby allowing some requests. But why did it happen here?

Medium mode and no-scripting don't block stylesheet connections.

This is the stylesheet connection that will load with your configuration:

<noscript><link rel='stylesheet' href='https://cdn.adsninja.ca/adsninja_client_style.css?v=934'></noscript>

Medium mode and no-scripting don't block stylesheet connections.

That's obvious to me. I just said that to clarify that the logger is not necessary (but it is convenient) to debug this

I don't really understand your question.

But why did it happen here?

What is "it"?

Just FYI that EL has a whitelist filter for adsninja.ca in this site:

What is "it"?

When I wrote that, I assumed that some unknown filter blocks all subdomains of adsninja.ca, while another filter allowed the specific sub cdn. (for all or some domains that request it).

By "it" I meant "some static filter allows some requests to cdn.adsninja.ca".

However, I was open to the possibility that there's another problem.

Thanks for the info! I've read that line before, but didn't know the semantics of @@ prefix
