There are currently two experimental filters, which are block-then-redirect filters, to block the following resources:
- `googletagservices.com/tag/js/gpt.js`: Normally [not blocked by EasyPrivacy](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode#easy-mode).
- The effect of blocking `googletagservices.com` by default can be appreciated by looking at how often it occurred as a 3rd-party in [_Easy_ blocking mode](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode#easy-mode) (which is default uBO settings).
- The effect of blocking `googletagservices.com` by default can be appreciated by looking at how often it occurred as a 3rd-party in [_Easy_ blocking mode](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode) (which is default uBO settings).
- Specifically, this would bring the number of 3rd parties hit during the benchmark for the _Easy_ blocking mode from 512 to 466.
- `www.google-analytics.com/ga.js`: Normally blocked by uBO, but blocking this resource has sometimes led to page breakage, so exception filters have been required. By forcing a redirect to a neutered version, the goal is to reduce page breakage while avoiding the need to create an exception filter for some sites ([example](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/1081#issuecomment-165501960)).
Note that these two experimental filters use the `important` filter option, so they will bypass any existing exception filters.
