- Pattern-based filtering on the whole URL. Examples:
- Plain pattern: `&act=ads_`
- Wildcard-based pattern: `/analytics.*/event?`
- Regex-based pattern: `/^https?:\/\/[a-z]{8,15}\.[a-z]{2,3}\/5\/\d{6,7}(?:\?_=\d+)?$/$script,3p`
- Context information
- example: `$script,third-party,domain=imgbox.com`
- point-and-click to enable/disable blocking behavior on a per-site basis:
- Example: `$script,third-party,domain=imgbox.com`
- Point-and-click to enable/disable blocking behavior on a per-site basis:
- JavaScript
- Large media elements
- Remote fonts

- Ability to redirect to a neutered version of a resource

- example: `wallstreet-online.de##+js(nostif, userHasAdblocker)`
- Example: `wallstreet-online.de##+js(nostif, userHasAdblocker)`
- HTML filtering (Tor Browser and Firefox only), the removal of DOM elements from a document before parsed by the browser
- example: `wetteronline.de##^script:has-text(runCount)`
- Example: `wetteronline.de##^script:has-text(runCount)`
- Ability to deal with unwanted popups
- example: `&link_type=offer$popup,third-party`
- Example: `&link_type=offer$popup,third-party`
- Ability to remove tracking parameters from websites
- example: `||wuzhuiso.com^$removeparam=src`
- Example: `||wuzhuiso.com^$removeparam=src`
- You can easily (narrowly/broadly) override any filter from the filter lists through simple point-and-click operations to customize your filtering or to quickly fix sites broken as a result of overzealous filters
