Hey @SeriousHoax. When it comes to a lot of the adblock/Shields stuff, I know very little beyond the basics. So there’s not too much I’ll be able to answer you on. I also want to remind you that it was 3:18AM on a Saturday when you tagged everyone in your last reply. While Fanboynz is a bit more random on when he appears, Mattches and the rest of Support generally are never active on weekends or American holidays. Just mentioning that as might be waiting at least a few days for a follow-up.

Just would have been not high priority compared to some other things they’ve been working on :
I’m going to just tag in a lot of the people who work on Shields to see if any of them can answer for you better on what’s going on and any tweaks you might be able to make for what you’re aiming for.
