Yes it can break pihole too, iirc. Not sure of the exact nature of it, but basically it checks that you loaded the page as intended. If resources are blocked, it didn't load as intended.

It didn't load as the feudal lords who hate your property rights and think they're entitled to colonize your computer for their own benefit intended.
