Because of limitations in Android’s WebView, and to speed up processing of requests, Privacy Browser implements a simplified interpretation of the Adblock syntax. This can sometimes lead to false positives, where resources are allowed or blocked in ways that weren’t intended by the original entry. - A more detailed description of how the blocklist entries are processed is available at stoutner.com.

Privacy Browser has three additional filter lists. + UltraList and + UltraPrivacy + 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.
