Description

uBlock Origins prevents Spotify browser-based from playing any songs, even the player is disabled. I was forced to use a third-party Open Spotify blocking tool. I hope this gets addressed, it appears that Open Spotify is taking measures to circumvent browser adblockers. Ghostery, which I had previously disabled, works in tandem /w this new Open Spotify adblocker on Chrome Store called SpotiAds. I would love to go back to using uBlock Origins on this site. Maybe an Anti-Adblocker Detection tool would be nice ?!

I hope this gets addressed, it appears that Open Spotify is taking measures to circumvent browser adblockers.

Or you have manually enbaled 28 lists besides the default setup for some reason and that causes the breakage.
The site - and the songs - work fine on my end.

I disabled some Custom Filter Lists, in the process lost a lot of filters, but they are dead now. Open Spotify is working again though.

• I did not enable external filter lists, or I have verified that the issue still occurs without enabling external filter lists.

Please actually read and follow the prerequisites instead of just ticking them.
