Does not filter DuckDuckGo image search results. Pinterest.* still shows up when you pick the image tab. using the following: *://pinterest.com/* *://pinterest.com.au/* *://pinterest.com.nz/* *://pinterest.co.uk/* *://pinterest.com.mx/*

Works great, even filters image results which is exactly what I needed. Combined with uBlock Filters, I've successfully blocked certain websites from ever being accessed.
