Hi, there appears to be a few posts about this exact thing, but I am having the same issue.

I'm trying to block tiktok but had the same issue a long time ago when trying to do the same with youtube

http would block, but https wouldn't, over time, i gave up.

however its back to haunt me.

I haven't found a solution on the community pages, so wondered if there is a solution to this.
to be clear, this is true on pcs as well as mobile devices.

I can see blocked domains in the logs, loads of ..tiktok...com etc so I can see some of it working.

Many thanks in advance.

Ben

  Browsers will ignore/block HTTP resources on HTTPS pages (with varying degree of strictness). The reason for this blocking is that insecure HTTP resources like stylesheets and scripts could still be modified by an attacker and used to spoof/hijack secure parts of the site.
