The color of a row hints at how a how the resource was filtered:
- No color: The resource was untouched, i.e. allowed to go through.
- Red: The remote resource was blocked.
- Green: The remote resource was allowed to go through as a result of an explicit bypass of existing block filters/rules.
- Yellow:
- A DOM element which was blocked by a cosmetic filter; OR
- A blocked network resource which was redirected to a local replacement resource.
When a resource is blocked/allowed/hidden/redirected, the 3rd column in the row will provide further information. For blocked/allowed/hidden resources, the column will contains the responsible filter. For redirection, the column will contains the local resource used as replacement to the blocked network request.
