When a whitelist directive starts and ends with a forward slash (`/`), uBO will treat the directive as a regex-based one. + +Given that whitelist directives dictate where uBO should be completely disabled, be very careful with regex-based directives, you could easily mistakenly cause uBO to be disabled on more sites than you intended. Typically, only advanced users will resort to regex-based directives, and only for cases where no other syntax can do the job. #### A Youtube channel
