It is frustrating. At the end of the day uBlock can only block what it can see. If I'm an asshole web host I can still take your IP and every other bit of data that I can gobble up from the HTTP headers and sell those off to the highest bidder and uBlock can't do anything about that. So, nefarious actors still be nefarious actors.

Disclaimer: I use uBlock.
