That's not what the docs say [1]:

  A single rule does one of the following:

  - Block a network request.
  - Upgrade the schema (http to https).
  - Prevent a request from getting blocked by negating any matching blocked rules.
  - Redirect a network request.
  - Modify request or response headers.
Does "block" not mean block? Can you provide a source? Or am I looking at the wrong docs? I'm searching online and can't find anything that says the request is still sent.
