dns-blocklists VS hblock

Please anybody using public wifi networks, protect yourself as much as possible. You can use encrypted dns on all of your devices. iPhone / Mac users download one of the profiles. Android users : choose the dns blocking level you want and enter the corresponding address in “private dns” on most Android devices in the network settings. My preference is dns over tls but dns over https is good too. TLS is just one additional layer of encryption. (Encrypts packets between your device and router) or just use a vpn or both.

Mullvad encrypted DNS is also available to all - whether paying for VPN services or not.

In addition they also support optional content blocking[1] via blocklists, just set the desired TLS/HTTPS DNS server.

Option for ads and tracker block DNS: 1. https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists 2. https://nextdns.io 3. https://adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

Not sure isit helpful, you can checkout mullvad dns https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists or nextdns. They do offer free dns and block ads on dns level

I found that 100.64.0.31 is good, I got it from here

You can find more info here https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists

I use Mullvad's adblock DNS and it works fine. Just go to 'Advanced' and under DNS put in the DNS combination you want from their list at https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists

I'm talking something like hblock (https://hblock.molinero.dev/) which is for host blocking malceous+ other websites. Imagine blocking every single address manually. To get a picture how impossible it be here is the sample hosts file (https://hblock.molinero.dev/hosts) just do line count and you will understand.

they will never block open source world! For Linux: https://github.com/hectorm/hblock For Linux/Win/Android https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

A quick and dirty solution is just using something likehBlock, that will block most unnecessary traffic (malware from Google, Meta, Microsoft, and generic advertising companies, etc.)

I just came across this tool hblock that seems simpler to install and run.

An Australian got an error with their postal tracking app, compare Hagezi's "OK we'll whitelist it so your app doesn't break" vs hblock's "Meh, go report to the source list maintainer".

If you want systemwide block you may look hblock

Yeah, definitely going to skip that list. Compare how Hagezi and hblock deal with the exact same issue, still not going to adopt it because the hype turns me off, but at least I prefer "ok, we make sure the site you visit doesn't break" compared to dismissive "oh it's a tracker so it's your fault".
