Hi guys
Very happy to be here, this is my first post, and my first Raspberry to ... :slight_smile:
I hope that you can help me with this little issue

Expected Behaviour

Safari 11.0.3 should be block " taboo,com" ads sample url > https://www.subdivx.com/index.php?buscar=arrow+S01E01&accion=5&masdesc=&subtitulos=1&realiza_b=1 (this URL in my browser show ads, this site is for subtitle download)

Actual Behaviour:

I use safari version 11.0.3 in several macs with OSX 10.11 y 10.13 in all Macs i have the same result
i browse for different sites and i got ads from " taboola,com" i try to add this domain in the black list even as a wildcard domain, the rule apply ok, but the ads still shows.
I shutdown the browser , delete the cache and even use an app (cookie) to delete all cache and cookies from the browser, but i don't have any luck.

I also make sure that all in the raspberry is update i run this commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt -yf dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -y --purge autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
pihole -g -up
pihole -up

reboot and yet no luck

I disable the wi-fi interface don't need it.

I'm sure that i make some mistake here, hope some one help me to correct this
Thanks a lot in advance
Best Regards

I see you blocked cdn.taboola.com in your blacklist. This is not the same as blocking taboola.com. Was this your intent with blacklisting or is there some other behavior you are trying to accomplish?

Hi Jacob
I try to block taboola.com i see in some sites that show the same kind of add, they show several variants of taboola.com as your point before one is can.taboola.com i try to put *.taboola.com in the white list but i came with an error i can compile a list of sites or URL if you need to show more detail about the problem
Regards

As an example

https://www.subdivx.com/index.php?buscar=arrow+S01E01&accion=5&masdesc=&subtitulos=1&realiza_b=1
(this URL show a list of subtitles for tv-show ARROW S01E01)
on the side is plague with ads, i can find this URL (just the domains to be short)
https://wf.taboola.com/VideoBidRequestHandlerServlet?
https://vidstat.taboola.com/vpaid/vPlayer/player/v8.7.3/OvaMediaPlayer.js
https://convlatbmp.taboola.com/st?
https://ads.pubmatic.com/

as you can see i add ads.pubmatic.com in the black list but is keep come in ... :frowning:

I'm unable to replicate this with the stock lists. I do not see any ads on the side of that page.

What lists are you using?
