Metro copy-jacking filter? (self.uBlockOrigin)

submitted by rinyre

I'm not sure how to write a rule to cover something this specific, but on Metro.co.uk, one of the scripts loaded from wp.com includes a "copy-jacker" that hangs an event listener for copying contents from the page, whether using Ctrl+C or right-click->copy. You can see the event listener by opening the developer tools in, say, a Chromium-based browser. I'm a little hesitant to block all stuff from wp.com, and some other things in that script seemed like they might be useful or needed, but that copyjacking is damn annoying.

metro.co.uk##script:inject(addEventListener-defuser.js, copy, BLACKLIST)

works for me.
