Ublock Origin Not Working on Videos on Foxsports.com.au

I am using uBlock Origin and for videos on foxsports.com.au, the ads are still being played before the content. Is there a way to remove the ads?

  • Try force updating all your Ublock Origin Filters.
    - Open the dashboard
    - Click Filter Lists
    - click the little clock icon next to each filter

    • Thanks, tried that and also tried clearing Chrome's history and cache but the ads still play.

  • +1

    Works in firefox.
    1. Get firefox from here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    2. Within firefox, go here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin…

    • Thanks - Firefox does remove the ads with uBlock.

      Do the ads play for you in Chrome?

  • when you update. Do you purge the cache first?

    • Yep.

  • try Ghostery

    • Thanks, tried it - ads still play.

      Do the ads play for you?

      • I am on satellite broadband with limited data allowance, I do not watch online videos, sorry

    Fox Sports AU is listed on that page.

    Instart Logic technology disguises 3rd party requests as 1st party ones. It's also capable of detecting when the developer console is open, making it a nuisance to detect and develop countermeasures for. uBlock Origin Extra gets around that.

    See if that helps. If it doesn't, have you tried subscribing to extra lists or are you using the default ones?

    If you're interested in a more general purpose anti anti adblock, you can check out Nano Defender (has uBlock Origin Extra built in). It works alongside uBlock Origin and Nano Defender (a fork of uBlock Origin), but uBlock Origin requires more settings to be changed.
