- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15728422, 5 years agoWith the most recent update sometime in 2020, this add-on is now broken. It no longer blocks video ads on YouTube, it doesn't block ads on some sites and you can no longer block ads by selection. I don't know what the developers were thinking by updating to this broken version, but they need to rethink that change. 1 star.

posted 5 years agoHi, We believe this is an issue related to being unsubscribed to our primary filter list, EasyList. To enable EasyList, please click the AdBlock button in the browser toolbar and select Options. On the Filter lists tab, select "EasyList". Refresh the page where you were seeing ads. This should resolve this issue but please reach out to us at help@getadblock.com if the problem persists. --AdBlock Support - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13818546, 5 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by sindy, 5 years agoThe new permissions are just too much for a product that no longer works as advertised. I'd advise everyone to look around. There are programs that are better. Too much greed with the permissions, I'm turning this off.

"We believe this is an issue related to being unsubscribed to our primary filter list, EasyList. To enable EasyList, please click the AdBlock button in the browser toolbar and select Options. On the Filter lists tab, select "EasyList".
I did exactly as written and it has worked. So I recommend every one who has said issues give this an attempt before totally giving up.
Also, thank you to developer for informing about this. - Rated 1 out of 5by brb7mam, 5 years agothe new update dosn't block adds anymore if you didn't update then don't

- Rated 1 out of 5by smph, 5 years agoThis worked very poorly (Firefox). It didn't block ads until I did so manually.

[UPDATE] I followed your instructions below and updated again, and enabled "Easy List". That was the fix. 4.7 is working! Yay!Developer response
