Is it possible to add the sex images blocking function to adblock plus? Anyone have the filter?

Everything that Adblock Plus blocks, it really blocks them without downloading any.
So it can't know if there are boobies in them:)

It's only possible to block them like normal ads:

And i don't know if there is "ready" filterlist for it, i think it's very impossible to block all porn with Adblock.

Oh. So everything is included in the Adblock Plus. I just had problems with the sex images popping out. I think I just had to configure and check my Adblock Plus.

@jshore:

We don't know of anyone who has made a "porn-blocking" filter yet.

Many users have asked about one but none of us have been interested in creating one because porn advertising is insane from a filter-maker's prospective! It would take forever to make a good one. Also, porn domains keep changing all of the time.

Maybe we could just adapt the filter from other extensions.

CyberSitter would have a ball destroying that filter, wouldn't it?

How could we adapt them to suit adblock plus ?
There is a problem with "and" for instance.

EDIT: OOPS ecjs ... thought the following was directed at my post.

The only way that this would work for people who use CyberSitter would be to announce that the 'subscription serving domain' MUST be added to the "Allowed sites" in CyberSitter .... this is what I was told by CyberSitter themselves.

I asked them about not parsing simple *.txt files .... they did not even address that suggestion in the 6 paragraphs that they wrote to me.

edit: And yes you are right, ecjs .... "and" would be a bit of a problem, hey?

There is a problem with EVERYTHING in that list. They are NOT addresses nor elements. They are for text (like CyberSitter). ABP does not block text.
