Epiphany's ad blocker is now working for me on GuixSD with GNOME and a
foreign distro.

Epiphany comes with an ad blocker extension that can be enabled in the
settings.  When starting epiphany, however, the following message can be
seen on VT1:

** (WebKitWebProcess:12345): WARNING **: Error retrieving adblock filter: Operation not supported

In fact, Epiphany does not store any filter list anywhere and as a
result no ads are blocked.
