+Starting with v8, the options `unblock` and `unmask` do not add default DOM selectors anymore. If you want to keep the default behavior of previous versions, then you should explicitly specify them in your configuration:
+
+```javascript
+Sentry.replayIntegration({
+  unblock: ['.sentry-unblock, [data-sentry-unblock]'],
+  unmask: ['.sentry-unmask, [data-sentry-unmask]'],
+})
+```
