Comment (by ma1):
I doubt it's the same defect, or even similar, as the implementation of
the filter has radically changed with WebExtensions, and now it runs
asynchronously in its own process and shouldn't be able to block the
browser, let alone the whole computer.
Could you please provide me steps to reproduce reliably?
Is it Tor Browser specific or does it affect Firefox too.
Might it be related to the pseudo-modal warning dialog (which must go away
anyway anyway, with the UI redesign), rather than the filter itself?
Thanks.
