Firefox is Failing to Bypass Anti-Adblock Detection on Multiple Websites

Firefox for iOS Tracking protection

Firefox is unable to bypass anti-adblock detection on many websites, such as The Hindu, making it difficult to access content.

Interestingly, Brave Browser handles these anti-adblock restrictions very easily, without requiring users to disable ad blocking.

I request the Firefox team to improve its built-in ad-blocking and anti-adblock detection handling to provide a smoother browsing experience.

Please look into this issue.

Hi Zero_07,

Firefox for iOS uses Apple’s WebKit Content Blocker technology and the EasyList filter list to determine what gets blocked. However, it's important to note that this won't block every ad. Ads served directly by the site you're visiting will still appear.

If you want to share your feedback with the team, I'd recommend filing the feedback as a new idea in our feedback platform, Mozilla Connect.
