How to disable “uBlock Origin has prevented the following page from loading”?












6















I'm using the Chrome browser extension uBlock Origin. It works to block ads and other elements on web pages.



However sometimes it blocks whole pages with the message:




uBlock Origin has prevented the following page from loading




How can I disable this feature completely? It really annoys me.

    can you give me an example, where I can try that? never encountered a page that was blocked completely by ublock (using it myself for some months now)

The page itself has the solution: there are buttons in there which offers you to disable temporarily or permanently the whole page blocking (aka "strict blocking") for the current site.



If exposing hidden redirects and not connecting at all to dubious sites is less important to you than a once-in-a-while-with-easy-temporary-or-permanent-remediation "annoyance", then the wiki documentation has the solution (add to the My rules pane):



no-strict-blocking: * true

uBlock Origin has prevented the following page from loading



uBlock Origin will block whole pages if the URL matches something in the Malware Domains list:



enter image description here



These domains are blocked by default:




The default behavior of uBlock Origin when newly installed is to block ads, trackers and malware sites




You can unblock them (at your own risk) by white-listing the site or by unchecking the appropriate list.



You will then be able to visit the site in question.

  • Strict blocking is enforced for more than just the malware domains, it applies to any filter for which there is a strict hostname match. Un-checking filter lists or whitelisting is not the solution, disabling strict blocking for the current site (recommended) or everywhere (not recommended) is the solution.

  • While the other answer explaining how to disable "strict blocking" is very interesting, I think this answer is the most adequate. Indeed, i) one does not want to disable "strict blocking" globally, ii) for most cases, it is a filter which is the cause of the blocking, so there will be a temporary fix, iii) for the remaining cases, the cause of the blocking is in the HOSTS file, and it is smarter to disable "over-protective" HOSTS files which include false positives.

  • For the benign redirection which I encountered and which is blocked, the blocked host is present in two files: "Dan Pollock’s hosts file" and "MVPS HOSTS". The rest of the files, such as "Malware Domain List", do not include this host. This is likely a false positive and a sign that the two files listing the host are not serious enough to my tastes.
