# Cromite AdBlock engine
|
|
|
|
## Modified version of Adblock plus integrated in cromite
|
|
|
|
Cromite uses a modified version of adblock plus.
|
|
|
|
Some adblock plus rules cannot be used:
|
|
- removed support for header and csp filter option
|
|
- removed support for json-override, simulate-event-poc, simulate-mouse-event snippets
|
|
- allowed the use of override-property-read by eliminating the possibility of specifying a number as an argument (except 0 and 1)
|
|
- removed support for sitekey
|
|
|
|
Some improvements have been included:
|
|
- Added dns CNAME support
|
|
- Block of WebSockets and WebTransport urls
|
|
- Block of service workers fetchs
|
|
|
|
All default filters are downloaded from www.cromite.org/filters urls. You can enter your lists via the settings: http url redirection is prohibited.
|
|
|
|
### Update mechanism
|
|
|
|
The Cromite AdBlock Update Service checks every day if new filters are published.
|
|
|
|
www.cromite.org does not record any logs.
|
|
|
|
## Legacy bromite adblock engine
|
|
|
|
Since v77 Bromite uses [Chromium subresource filter](https://github.com/chromium/chromium/tree/master/components/subresource_filter).
|
|
|
|
This engine does not currently support CSS rules; as a result some sites will show ads.
|
|
|
|
In cromite it is disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
### Update mechanism
|
|
|
|
The Bromite AdBlock Update Service checks at startup (after 5 seconds) and periodically (every week) if new filters are published.
|
|
|
|
### Original Bromite AdBlock engine
|
|
The ad-blocking engine of Bromite till v76 was an improved version of the original engine of [NoChromo](https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-nochromo-w)
