rshupak Hey, friend! Sorry to see this happening! Since it's been a while since you've posted, I wanted to follow up and see if this was still happening to you in Canary (you stated here you are on Canary, please correct me if this particular issue is on another channel). If it is, are you able to try out Chrome Canary and see if the same thing is happening there? This will help us determine next steps.

MissyQ No change in Version 81.0.363.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit). I did experiment with using "[*.]google.com". This worked while "google.com" did not. I must say that using brackets is puzzling. I don't understand why "*.google.com" would not be accepted or preferable. It's pretty much the convention elsewhere. Regardless, there should be help or explanatory text that explains the semantics.

rshupak I wanted to follow up here to let you know that I got some details in your other thread. Please respond there! That'll make it easier for me to track. 😉

  MissyQ I replied to the other thread in regard to flaws in blocking. I believe the problem with clear on exit was simply the distinction between google.com and [*.]google.com. If I find otherwise, I will repost.
