Sadly, https://ici.tou.tv makes many uses of badly written scripts. What has happened to me, is that the whole site goes blank when using pihole. Using the Tor browser, I was able to see the site again (the Tor browser does not use pihole).
Could anyone else try https://ici.tou.tv and see if they get the same result?
And if you get the blank page, is there a work-around?
No, I don't get a blank page and I have neither white- nor blacklisted the site. Seems to be a french-speaking TV site.
What problems are you experiencing? You speak of badly written scripts, but things look smooth here.
I can't play any shows - since I am not in France (or Canada).
I got the problem on Linux Mint 18.3 (with four different browsers), with Linux Mint 19 (five different browsers) and on Ubuntu 18.04 (three different browsers).
On the Ubuntu box, I changed the /etc/resolv.conf from the Pihole raspberry pi to 1.1.1.1 directly. And it worked just fine.
Thus, there is something not working between https://ici.tou.tv and Pihole.
Yes, I have tried whitelisting and blacklisting googletagservices.com and I get the same result: the blank page (which initially loads for a second or two, then goes blank).
This has happened in: Mint 19, Mint 18.3, Ubuntu 18.04 and in ChromeOS. Same problem. When I don't use the pihole dns (changing the /etc/resolv.con to 1.1.1.1), then I don't have the problem. So far, it only happens on this one site, https://ici.tou.tv
I'll keep at it. It's a very strange problem which should not be happening.
