arapurayil's Block List (aBL)
Filter lists optimized for DNS level blocking of ads, analytics, crypto-jacking and other such threats/nuisances.
About
-
The focus here is on generating a list which doesn't hamper usability while not compromising on privacy/security.
-
The sources for the list is carefully curated to include lists which are regularly maintained and have minimum overlaps.
-
Whitelists are extensively employed to make sure false positives do not occur.
-
By making use of regex and ABP style the size of the list is kept to a minimum.
- If a domain is already blocked, its subdomains are removed from the list.
- By employing regex rules, only those rules which are not matched are kept on.
- The whitelist is compared with the regex rules to ensure no safe-domain is ensured that no useful domain is inadvertently blocked.
Usage
NOTE: It will work wherever ABP format is supported, ex: ublock origin, but is best used for filtering DNS queries.
Support
- Report false-positives or bad domains
- Improve generator script by making a PR
