[uBO] Adblock detection / redirect on gmx.net

German email service GMX has implemented an automatic redirect after logging in. It used to be a nag screen, now they completely prevent using the service with an active Adblocker.

Steps to reproduce the issue with active uBO:

Open https://gmx.net -> Click the login button and proceed with credentials -> The mailbox shows for a second, then you automatically get redirected to https://www.gmx.net/fairplay/block/?section=adblock-wall, prompting the user to either deactivate the adblocker or use their mobile app.

This has been tested on Firefox 151.0.2 with the latest filterlist updates.
