Description
When ad and tracker blocking is set to aggressive, custom blocking rules generally don't work, and refreshing pages for which custom blocking rules have been set will sometimes block content and sometimes not. If ad and tracker blocking is set to standard, custom blocking works.
Steps to reproduce
Actual result
When ad and tracker blocking is set to aggressive, sometimes the element is blocked and sometimes not. If ad and tracker blocking is set to standard, custom blocking works properly.
Expected result
When ad and tracker blocking is on, custom rules should work every time the page is opened.
