Comment:

 Okay, I found a better URL:
 http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/featured/131466. It seems that the blocking
 works correctly if the video is not shown because of non-supported video
 format/MIME type (which is suddenly happening for the original URL) but
 that might be a coincidence.

 However, I feel chances are high this needs to get fixed on the NoScript
 side... I reproduced the bug with Tor Browser 8.0 as well.
