  • blocklists

    Shared lists of problem domains people may want to block with hosts files

  • You would need to block all facebook domains https://github.com/jmdugan/blocklists/blob/master/corporatio...

  • BarbBlock

    Chrome extension which blocks requests to sites which have used legal threats to remove themselves from other blacklists.

  • 2. Streisand effect is a thing and the domain in question was blocked by everyone and everywhere. There was even a special filter list and later a browser extension which only purpose was to block such domains. It got some traction but later got abandoned: https://github.com/paulgb/BarbBlock. If something like that happens again I am pretty sure it can be revived very quickly.

  • Firefox-UI-Fix

    🦊 I respect proton UI and aim to improve it.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
