If some sites or features are broken with tracking blocked, maybe it's a good thing? Why should malicious sites/services get a free pass siphoning off and/or infecting devices? This way they are directed towards more respecting services.
On the other hand, too much frustration is just too much, so you definitely need to balance.
- rosybox 7y agoThey could be sites for work, for government business, a school website, or their doctor's website that is broken when they needed to schedule surgery or something and they wont have any idea it was ublock that broke it and wont think to ask you. Ublock has broken all kinds of sites for me, and I don't know if it's because these sites used a third party JavaScript library or some video provider or what, but I know to turn off all the privacy tracking things I have in my browser when a webpage looks broken, and often that fixes it.
