Amazon filters not working

[OldGuyInTheClub]

Prerequisites

• This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
• I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
• I am running the latest version of uBlock Origin (uBO).

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

• uBO is the only extension.
• uBO uses default lists and settings.
• using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

Posting here via uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues#2492 for support not through Reddit.

I would like to block Amazon results from web searches. I primarily use Duckduckgo but occasionally use Google as well. I have found ideas through the comments in:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29794372
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31693287
and many other web searches.

I have tried the following filters individually and in various combinations but Amazon results keep coming through.
(Full disclosure: I have read the uBlock Origin filter tutorial but frankly don't understand the details of modern webpages enough to know how to write my own. I use examples from searches and very rarely modify them by trial and error.)

I have used the Element Inspector to see if the hrefs, divs, and other items exist and they appear to be there. It seems like these filters ought to work but I am no expert.

duckduckgo.*##.results > div:has(a[href*=["https://www.amazon.com"](https://www.amazon.com/)])

google.com##a[href^=["https://www.amazon."](https://www.amazon./)]:upward(.g)
duckduckgo.*##a[href^=["https://www.amazon."](https://www.amazon./)]:upward(.g)

duckduckgo.com###links > div:has(.result__url__domain:has-text(/amazon/i))
duckduckgo.com###results > div:has(.result__url__domain:has-text(/amazon/i))

duckduckgo.*##.results > div:has(a[href*="amazon.*"])
google.*##.g:has(a[href*="amazon.*"])

No response

uBO version

uBlock Origin 1.50.0

I have added the filters above to "My Filters", saved the changes, and tried my searches again.

• I have tried them individually
• I have created a completely new account on my Mac, tried the default uBO configuration, then the added filters one at a time

I have also searched the web with multiple search engines for other uBO tips.

Did not know that site existed! Thanks.

It's filters seem to work for Google but not DDG where Amazon results still get through. Should I contact the letsblock.it team for further questions or is it ok to continue here?

www.google.*##.g:has(a[href*=".amazon."])
www.google.*##a[href*=".amazon."]:upward(1)
duckduckgo.com##a[data-testid="result-title-a"][href*=".amazon."]:upward(.nrn-react-div)
duckduckgo.com##.tile-wrap a[href*=".amazon."]:upward(.tile)

That worked! I appreciate the link to the other thread. I did some searching before posting but did not come across that one.
