Cannot "always allow" image and css for 1st-party

irgendsontyp opened this issue · comments

I want to allow image and css for every 1st-party site. I do not want to enable those for every web page because I do not want someone to silently make me load a tracking image.

When I select the "*"-scope in uMatrix, click in the rectangles for image and css so their backgrounds turn to green, css and image is still blocked (and have red background) on pages which I did not explicitely allow to load those resources.

Am I getting something wrong?

Here is my * scope settings - note the far left first party is green
scopeall

Now every site will load 1st party css + images only as per the sections I boxed in black. The green cells outside the black boxes are extra rules I created

Note: this works for me since I block everything else (top row all) and still alows me to control JS, cookies, frames etc even on 1st party

Here are a couple of examples of sites with no other changes

That's a nice workaround I will use, thank you very much!

Nevertheless, the issue I described is a bug, isn't it?

@irgendsontyp Your issue is invalid: you fail to provide detailed steps to reproduce. It's impossible to say anything. Marking as invalid until you actually make the case that there is an issue with uMatrix through detailed steps to reproduce.

Closing and marking as invalid, as per CONTRIBUTING.

That's a nice workaround ...

Its not a workaround, it's working exactly as it is meant to

If you don't want to use the uMatrix GUI, you can create these rules :

* 1st-party css allow
* 1st-party image allow

From my point of view too, it won't be a bug neither a workaround. Because apparently no you aren't familiar with uMatrix.
