Heroic redirects the store page through our partner link starting 2.13.0. As it's handled by adtraction this is what happens when the adtraction domain is blocked. We'll provide a option to disable partner links in the future

[Giger22]

Yeah, you are right. I just checked and Portmaster blocked track.adtraction.com when attempting to connect.

This is more likely what was going on in my case than a problem with PowerShell. Can you explain the reason for going through adtraction?

[imLinguin]

The partner link we got from GOG works that way. This is their way to detect what purchases were made after being redirected through such link.

Ahhh! I've been wondering why all of the sudden GOG hasn't been working. I guess it's been my Pi-hole. Do you get any benefit from the partner link, or is it only for GOG's tracking/metrics? If you are getting any percentage of sales made with the partner link I'd be happy to whitelist adtraction, but if not I'll keep it blocked and wait for the fallback workaround.

we get a % of the games purchased if that link is followed

It could be beneficial to provide the specific partner link e.g. inside the readme so people can add an exception to their adblockers

I think the modal that is shown when adtraction fails to load is clear enough about the domain.
