Dynamic filtering

You can skip this section if you didn't opt-in to "I am an advanced user" or you are otherwise not a user of dynamic filtering.

It's no longer possible to point-and-click to create allow (green) rules from within the popup panel by default. This change is motivated by seeing way too many cases of improper usage of dynamic filtering in which users are creating allow (green) rules where noop (gray) rules should have been used.

Creating allow rules has serious consequences as these override blocking static filters and can potentially disable other advanced filtering ability such as HTML filtering and scriptlet injection -- often used to deal with anti-blocker mechanisms; to the point where misusing allow rules can easily cause a user to be less protected than when using uBO with default settings/lists.

Here are typical cases of misuse out of countless I have seen in the wild, including many of them being presented as a reference solution while they actually made things worst. Very recently I even had to correct a technical blog post telling people to use allow rules to override block rules, with no mention of noop rules -- which are the default way to override block rules, while allow rules are to be used in rare, exceptional circumstances. For reference, after years using medium/hard mode, I still have zero allow rules in my permanent ruleset.

You can get back temporarily the ability to create allow rules from within the popup panel by tapping twice the Ctrl key. In some browser versions[1], double-tapping the Ctrl key does not work, in such case you can recover the ability to create allow rules by changing the advanced setting filterAuthorMode to true.
