block ads and trackers that EasyList and EasyPrivacy do not. The third blocks all third-party requests.
A request is only considered third-party if the base domain of the request is different than the base domain of the URL.
For example, if <code>www.website.com</code> loads a picture from <code>images.website.com</code>,
this is not blocked as a third-party request because they both share the same base domain of <code>website.com</code>.
Blocking all third-party requests increases privacy, but this blocklist is disabled by default because it breaks a large number of websites.</p>
