I get the impression a lot of sites&amp;#x2F;services make expansive use of the &lt;i&gt;legitimate interest&lt;/i&gt; provision.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Intent to issue €2.5M fine to Disqus over GDPR breaches</title><url>https://www.datatilsynet.no/en/news/2021/intent-to-issue--25-million-fine-to-disqus-inc/</url></story>

You could also try a dynamic filter and disable it on a per-site basis&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;  * disqus.com * block
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
Or try &amp;quot;medium mode&amp;quot; to take care of Disqus and a whole host of other third party resources that track you&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;gorhill&amp;#x2F;uBlock&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Blocking-mode:-medium-mode&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;gorhill&amp;#x2F;uBlock&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Blocking-mode:-medium...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Intent to issue €2.5M fine to Disqus over GDPR breaches</title><url>https://www.datatilsynet.no/en/news/2021/intent-to-issue--25-million-fine-to-disqus-inc/</url></story>
