What on Earth does the functionality do?

I have no explanation for your lack of differences and I can only speak to my own experience, but as I have previously mentioned I have run into 19 websites that either won't display at all, the HTML/CSS will not render correctly, or certain functionalities will not work unless content blockers are disabled. The list includes at&t, Starbucks store, Walmart, Imgur, and youtube.

However, that could be because of other ad blocking Safari extensions I have installed and not directly caused by the built in intelligent ad blocking. Next time I hit one of those sites I will manually disable the ad blocking extensions and compare the results. In any case, whether the failure is a result of Safari's internal blocker or an a.d blocking extension the ability to toggle blocking on a site by site basis with a single click seems VERY valuable to me.

Well, I've visited Imgur and youTube with the "Enable content blockers" box checked and AdBlock and Ghostery enabled and not experienced any difficulties.

I agree that the ability to toggle blocking on a site by site basis with a single click is very valuable, but if it exists, I haven't stumbled on it yet. confused crazy
