Dynamic URL filtering became available in uBlock Origin (uBO) version 0.9.8.0.
The primary purpose of dynamic URL filtering ("URL filtering") is as a diagnosis/mitigation tool to fix web page breakage caused by dynamic filtering or static filtering. Secondary purpose of URL filtering is to offer higher granularity than what dynamic filtering can support.
