Go to the website where you want to disable uBlock Origin. However, when a website asks you to consider disabling your ad-blocker to support them you can choose to do it provided that the site is trustworthy and does not bombard you with annoying ads. While it is understandable that sites need to make money to survive, forcing users to disable adblockers is the wrong way to do that because the ad system is broken in its current form.

Extensions like uBlock Origin are part of your computer's security set-up along with your anti-virus and firewall. When a website asks you to disable your ad blocker, assume the worst. Malicious scripts which force you to disable your ad blocker (yes I consider them malware) get smarter all the time and bypass ad blockers, and it takes some time before the maintainers of the filter list update them to make the filters work again. When this happens, you may want to (should) report it to the add-on/filter maintainer.

Filters used by add-ons can get broken and it may take a while before it is fixed.
