The title seems to be wrong, uBlock Origin supported it for many years at this point (only on Firefox). This seems to be a refactor of that code, not a whole new feature.

Well, it does support it now. It supported it before, too :P

It sounds to me like more than just a refactor, it now allows blocking based on ip earlier, before the request is actually made. Although, that isn't perfect because it doesn't know which ip address the browser will choose if there are multiple ips for a single domain.

Ok, I've reverted the title to that of the page. Submitted title was "uBlock Origin supports filtering CNAME cloaking sites on Firefox now". If someone wants to suggest a more accurate and neutral title, we can change it again. Github commits without additional context don't usually make for great HN threads though...

Something akin to "uBlock Origin CNAME uncloaking now supports filtering by IP address" should be fine.
