As we move away from Patreon we are also changing our crypto payment addresses to a more secure Hardware wallet (Ledger<--Click here to learn more about Ledger and support the Block List Project).

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.

Updates:

As of right now, the "everything" and "everything-nl" lists are NOT being updated. Please update your devices accordingly.

Versions:

We have recently created an alternative version (alt-version) 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

Alternative 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.

Usage:

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

Using with Pi-hole:

1. Copy the link to the Pi-hole format for the desired list (from the appropriate table below).
2. Add the URL to your Pi-hole's block lists (Login > Group Management > Adlists > Paste list URL in "Address" field, add comment > Click "Add")
