Something to swap in for blocked requests, instead of nothing
uBlock Origin is trying out just this sort of thing: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/blob/master/assets/ublock/redirec...
Currently the extension has a bundled list of resource tokens
and corresponding swap-resources; if a resource is blocked by a
hostname-anchored filter (beginning with ||) that has
one (non-negated) request type, and it has a
redirect=_token_ option, where _token_ is
in the list, the resource will be swapped with the corresponding
swap-resource.
This list includes a buggy-looking 26-byte GIF for image-swapping, a minimal HTML page for frame-swapping, and three surrogate scripts; the list cannot currently be edited by the end user, but it may be in the future, and it will not be extensible by third parties.
