Details:

These lists were created because the founder of the project wanted something with a little more control over what is being blocked. Many lists are all or nothing. We set out to create lists with more control over what is being blocked.

Versions:

We have recently created an alternative versions of our lists.

Original Version:

All urls in the version of the list are listed in the host file as follows

0.0.0.0 example.com

No Leading 0s Version:

All urls in this version of the list are listed in the host file as follows

example.com

Our users brought it to our attention that some devices error out if the url is preceded by an IP address.

Beta dnsmasq Version:

All urls in this version of the list are listed in the host file as follows

server=/example.com/

It was requested to add support for dnsmasq. We are currently testing 1 of our lists before creating a full set of lists. Please provide feedback.

Usage:

These converted files can be used with various DNS and domain-blocking tools:
