LOW UPDATE FREQUENCY
Because this list like Peter Low's list focusses on the advertising and tracking networks which place the adds on the websites
you visit, this list is not subjective to a lot of changes. Simply because it takes a lot of rime and money to build such a

ADVICED USAGE
When you decide to use this compact filter it is good practice to add your language specific Easylist English and your native
language Easylist filter. Thanks to to the ongoing efforst of Brave to remove dead filters the original Easylist filter is
reduced by 50 percent. As an alternative to Easylist you could use the Optimized Easylist filter of Adguard. This list
contains a subset (around 25%) of the rules which are triggered often (so it excludes the rules you probabaly never use).
This will combined (small and longlist ) approach will provide you with 90% of the ad and tracking protection with only 10% of
the number of block rules.
