Not working. I wanted to block celeb names, after i done it, i checked if its working, and it just hides basic news that has nothing to do with my tags
For example it bans the weather report, LOL!
I scrolled down like 3 sections and there was the same ****y celeb news i wanted to ban, with the same exact names that i put in the tag options.
