"Taboola Feed" infinite scroll down page

Please see this website: https://www.oantagonista.com/brasil/ministro-da-defesa-vai-a-suecia-para-ver-prototipo-de-caca/

It's a brazilian news site. Don't worry, there's not malwares, only a lot of ads banners.

Well, AdBlocker Plus extension blocked all the ads, except the Taboola feed. At the end of the website there is a comment section, but you can't reach that section because Taboola will add more and more ads while you scroll down the page.
I blocked Taboola including a personal filter in AdBlocker Plus.

But, could Edge have a built-in feature to block Taboola and similar "infinite pages"?

    Using ublock which also includes adblocker plus filters And a lot of other ones, I don't see any infinite scrolling element in there, nor do i see any ads. the websites and its comment section works just fine.
    if Microsoft decides to make such a powerful adblocker like ublock into the Edge browser they'd have to hire a team dedicated just to keep those filters updated regularly.

     

    in the picture you can see taboola.com is marked as red, meaning it's blocked completely.

      Thanks HotCakeX 

      I will give a try to uBlock Origin* ... I will disable temporarily AdBlock Plus and try uBlock for a week

      I saw that there is uBlock Origin and another called just uBlock...
