Block Adware and Malware with /etc/hosts

Don't forget about hosts.deny (but you probably need it at your router if you are behind one).

Anything to block trackers from desktop apps?
You might also look into HOSTS file editors and lists of servers to block. HOSTS is a single file you can edit on a Windows machine using a standard text editor. I used to follow this closely so I don't have a recommendation on which list to use, but here's a possible starting point: https://github.com/Ultimate-Hosts-Blacklist/Ultimate.Hosts.Blacklist

How to add custom blocklist?
I think the main source I use that doesn't seem to be in rethinkDNS is the Ultimate Hosts Blacklist's hosts and/or hosts.deny files.

Browser extensions spy on you, even if its developers don't
You can also use a declarative adblocker like uBlock Origin Lite [1], which only provides the browser with a list of elements to filter, but doesn't have any permissions to read content or perform requests. Or simply use your hosts file to apply OS-wide filtering with no browser add-ons needed: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts
Be aware that if you use these "passive" blocking methods, there are some sites like YouTube where you will see ads, because in these cases it's necessary to actually manipulate page content to hide them. What you can do is use a traditional adblocker but enable it only for these few sites where the declarative approach is not enough, take a look at [2] for more details.

[Paid Release]CCAdsBeGone - Customized Ads Blocking At Your Fingertips
When I select my custom hosts file, it basically breaks internet. However, if I choose a custom hosts file that is a copy of the dev's default, or if I just add a few lines to it, it will work. If I add too many lines, or use a different hosts file altogether (like the ones recommended by the dev), all connectivity breaks. Of course the latest official LetMeBlock is installed and mDNSResponder killed/restarted. I'm using Dopamine on A12+.
