Add "Global Filters" to Adblock Plus recommended filter lists

Background / User story

As a user I want to have a filter lists for my region so that I can have a better browsing experience.

Based on our last year data we have a lot of users in Thailand, Greece, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, but these regions are not covered by filter lists, therefore we:

  • receive a lot of user reports
  • complains from monetization unit because their acceptable ads are showing together with the unblocked ads
  • filter list is included in the Filter List Delivery System
  • Legal approval
