Pi-Hole - EasyPrivacy blocks startpage.com

I've been using a RPi4 for some time now, always with the default
adlist:

<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts>

Today I added EasyPrivacy

<https://v.firebog.net/hosts/Easyprivacy.txt>

and the problems began. I wasn't able to reach startpage.com anymore.
Logs showed Pi-Hole was blocking

vf.startpage.com

which is part of the EasyPrivacy list. I tried whitelisting it in Domain
management, but it doesn't work, so now I've disabled EasyPrivacy.

I'm obviously doing something wrong, but what? How can I enable the
adlist and still have access to startpage.com?
