Cross site tracker blocks Ancestry service

I use Ancestry which, when looking at DNA, automatically uses a 3rd Party service but when i try and access it i get the error “This site can’t be reached: discoveryui-geneticfamily ’s server IP address could not be found.” and suggests
Try:

If i turn Block cross-sites trackers off it works
Can i add exclusions to allow sites like this

Can you copy/paste the site-trackers from sheilds?

Sorry if it looks a bit cut off, but my guess it’s blocking the Javascript due to the file extension.

Hope this helped

Still can’t access thrulines in Ancestry when “block site trackers” is turned on. Works fine when off

I do have the latest version of Brave
Version 1.1.23 Chromium: 79.0.3945.88 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Have adjusted the whitelist, if this doesn’t work… then it’s not site-trackers. Give it 24-48hrs.
