Hi all,
I am not sure if I am asking too much but I would like to suggest/request a feature for Adblock Latitude. AdBlock (not Adblock Plus) has a nice feature to allow users to whitelist specific YouTube channel. Thanks to that feature users can support the channels they like by allowing the ads without bothering to disable the extension for every video. Unfortunately AdBlock is currently available only for Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. As it seem, developers do not consider Pale Moon due to Add-on SDK
incompatibility. I wonder if that would be possible to add YouTube channel whitelisting feature to Adblock Latitude. Thank you.

You can use standard filter preferences to get the same effect but I won't cater or bias the product to any specific site.
Clicking on the ABL Button (or in the Tools Menu) you can
Disable on this page only to have ABL automatically add a specific exception filter rule for a specific page or you can write manually a more complex filter to account for youtube channel pages yourself.
Direct Issues and feature requests should be made to the ABL Issue Tracker at its GitHub Repo @

How far are you prepared to go? How much are you prepared to risk? How many people are you prepared to sacrifice for victory?
Are you willing to die friendless, alone, deserted by everyone? Because that's what may be required of you in the war that is to come.

Yeah I know it sucks they won't support us (reported this issue to them a while back), this was my very first adblocker to have used on Firefox and Chrome/Opera, before that I used Disconnect. But now I'm happily using Ublock Origin, it's the most flexible adbocker that has ever been created; as they called, a
general blocker.

With Pale Moon by my side, surfing the web is quite enjoyable and takes my headaches away!
