STR: 1. Enable Tracking Protection 2. Load https://threatpost.com/mozilla-tests-dns-over-https-meets-some-privacy-pushback/130765/ 3. Search for the text "draft-04" in the page and click the "draft-04" link. EXPECTED RESULT: Firefox should load the linked page: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-doh-dns-over-https/?include_text=1 ACTUAL RESULT: Nothing happens. Is the IETF page load blocked because the domain name "datatracker.ietf.org" contains the substring "tracker"? Firefox will load the IETF page if you paste the https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-doh-dns-over-https/?include_text=1 URL in the address bar directly. Also, I am able to load the IETF page when clicking a link from google.com, so I'm not what is unusual about threadpost.com's link. https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdatatracker.ietf.org%2Fdoc%2Fdraft%2Dietf%2Ddoh%2Ddns%2Dover%2Dhttps%2F%3Finclude_text%3D1
(In reply to Chris Peterson [:cpeterson] from comment #0) > Is the IETF page load blocked because the domain name > "datatracker.ietf.org" contains the substring "tracker"? No, the domain would have to be on the Disconnect list. We cannot match on partial hostnames in the URL Classifier, we need at least ETLD+1. It looks like all of the external links in the articles are broken: Morecowbell and QuantumDNS -> https://gnunet.org/sites/default/files/mcb-en.pdf Maybe they have some kind of link-tracking or redirection that breaks when we block Google-Analytics or something like that.
