Support policy
I have no prejudices, I will support all users as far as possible, but please, when making a report, adhere to the language standard, only Russian or English. I speak only these languages and I do not want to resort to an online translator to answer you. Please respect others.
If the page is missing something that was previously there, make sure that the problem occurred because of the Fuck Fuckadblock filter before creating the report. You should understand that the phrase "Disable an adblocker/antivirus/firewall and refresh the page" should be perceived by you as "take off your pants and stand in the doggie position", never disable them, at least on the main computer. It is better to use a virtual machine for testing, if this is not possible, then disable only the Fuck Fuckadblock subscription, while leaving the other subscriptions, and if the problem is really there, run to make a report. If the problem is not in the Fuck Fuckadblock, but in some other subscription, then please disable your filters in order. Did you disable one filter, checked, the problem is not in it? Please enable it and go to another filter, etc. If you find a problem, write about it to its developers, not me.
Pop-ups with advertisements, they are all solvable, except for:
- Annoying notifications/alerts in browsers. They are not related to advertising, but judging by the reaction of users, they are no less concerned. You can read more information here.
- Independent (without your direct actions) opening sites with advertising. In this case, this behavior means that your computer is infected with a virus. My list in this case will not help you much, the only thing I can advise you is to check your computer for viruses (I recommend, AdwCleaner, Malwarebytes, ESET NOD32 or Dr. Web, install one of them). Please also pay attention to the plugins and extensions in your browser, you may find unknown add-ons, they may be advertising.
Check links using antivirus software and if you find potentially dangerous content on the page, indicate this in the report.
- Look maybe your issue is already solved.
- Other help:
- Check if you only have one adblocker enabled.
- Check if you are subscribed to the Fuck Fuckadblock.
- Check if the Fuck Fuckadblock list is enabled.
- Try updating or re-subscribing to the Fuck Fuckadblock list.
- Disable all extensions except your an adblocker.
- Check if your JavaScript is enabled, test it.
- Try this list in a different browser.
Some sites I can't add.

Adblock and Adblock Plus
These extensions have functional limitations. Most of the scriptlets that I use in this sheet are not provided for in the extensions in question, they will only appear there when the authors of these extensions write them, and until then, the Fuck Fuckadblock list is not supported for Adblock and Adblock Plus.
Any forks created based on these two extensions will also not work with my list.
AdGuard Content Blocker
This application does not and will not have scriptlets support, which means that Fuck Fuckadblock cannot work there.
Brave Shields
Although this software has a similar syntax to the uBlock Origin extension, you will not be able to install the Fuck Fuckadblock filter list there and the simultaneous use of uBlock Origin or Adguard with Brave Shields will cause compatibility issues (false positives will occur).
iOS and macOS
Based on the fact that Apple operating systems are all castrated, and taking into account the constant reduction of user APIs and the refusal to add them, which will be necessary to block ads, full functionality on these operating systems is not guaranteed. At the moment, ad blocking in iOS and macOS is carried out at the most primitive level. Only simple ads are removed, and complex modifiers in ad blocking programs are not provided for these operating systems. You can track the addition of the Blocking API here, you will need BlockingResponse
and Blocking requests
.
VPN programs and AdGuard for Windows/Mac/Android
It is not recommended to use Virtual Private Network (VPN) programs with AdGuard for Windows/Mac/Android. The use of such a software package is usually not a very good idea, because VPN applications encrypt network requests, and this in turn means that the content of internet pages will not be filtered. Any lists with filters will be useless when using the AdGuard program with VPN, but not with the AdGuard extension. If you still want to use such the bundle, then install the AdGuard AdBlocker extension in your browser.
In normal mode without VPN, I recommend to pause AdGuard AdBlocker so that there are no conflicts with AdGuard for Windows/Android/Mac, but when you plan to use VPN, enable AdGuard AdBlocker extension.
Blocking by DNS with AdGuard for Windows/Mac/Android and uBlock Origin
Using third-party DNS servers is fraught with problems with sites/applications that may start to work incorrectly when filtering Internet pages in general. Servers with DNS-level ad filtering make my list useless, since many advertising domains that allow you to bypass annoying notifications about blocked ads will be blocked and will not get into AdGuard for Windows/Mac/Android or uBlock Origin. Avoid third-party DNS servers, or at least use non-filtering DNS servers such as Google or Cloudflare.
