Because of limitations in Androidâs WebView, and to speed up processing of requests, Privacy Browser implements a simplified interpretation of the Adblock syntax.

Privacy Browser has three additional filter lists.

+ filters 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 www.website.com
loads a picture from images.website.com
,
this is not blocked as a third-party request because they both share the same base domain of website.com
.
- Blocking all third-party requests increases privacy, but this blocklist is disabled by default because it breaks a large number of websites.
