So, the maintainers of the EasyList filterset for the Adblock Plus plugin for Firefox have added a rule that blocks... the entire dailykos front page. And other pages. Pretty much the whole site.
Ow.
Update 3 [05-26-09 11:28PDT]:
The EasyList maintainers have fixed the rule that was breaking the site. Update your filterset and carry on.
[old fix redacted, no longer necessary]
Oh, and hi!
I'm rs, aka ed. I've been assisting ct with the nuts and bolts of the site for a little while now, answering tech@ email and generally trying to keep all of you out of his hair (or what's left of it) while he works on dk4.
Update [5-26-09 1:43 PDT]:
The problem fix will not show up until your EasyList subscription auto-updates. Or until you manually update thusly:
- Go to Tools -> Adblock Plus Preferences
- Right click on Filter subscription: EasyList
- Select "Update subscription now"
- Reload the page

Oh yeah, and buy a subscription, already, if you want to turn the ads off. You freeloading punks, you. Quit yer whining. Value of a dollar, hard day's work, no free lunch, etc.
