-## Adblock Plus is blocking too much content
+## Adblock Plus breaks the websites I visit
In rare instances, Adblock Plus may prevent some websites from functioning correctly. This is typically not a bug but rather a problem with the filters (or filter subscription). The filter lists may be directing Adblock Plus to block something that should be allowed. To verify that the issue lies within the filter list, temporarily disable Adblock Plus. If the issue is fixed after disabling Adblock Plus, you can be certain that the problem lies within the filters.
