[Fixed] Link not working without Google Analytics

Post by Lucas Malor »

Steps to reproduce:
  1. Go to http://www.kobo.com/desktop
  2. Allow kobo.com
  3. Click on "Dowload Now"
Result: no download

If you allow google-analiytics.com, download starts. Tested with Noscript 2.6.8.5

Well, for me, that download works with the whole site blocked.

Confirmed. Out of curiosity, what caused the bug?
