Content filter/News block
Hi guys! Is it possible to create some sort of filter that works
on news articles, not only ads? What I have in mind is a filter
that can be customized based upon words in headlines, or maybe the
article itself. Something along the lines of the
"Kardashian-blocker", an extention that will block news that
contain words. Lets say one does not care for football, so you list
useful keywords such as "fifa, premier league" and so on to make
those articles disappear.
Whaddya think? :)

Hi Jon,
Thank you for your suggestion! A Kardashian-blocker is a very popular request. Adding the option to filter on keywords would make such an extension even more useful.
I can't promise we'll actually add this to AdBlock, but I'm going to pass it to our team for consideration. :)
