Hi, MrMoneyMustache is a popular personal finance blog, it shouldn't be blocked as far as I know.

mrmoneymustache.com

Thanks !

Hi Mitchell,

It looks like openlibrary.org is being incorrectly blocked by this list.

It is a service from the non-profit Internet Archive which provides access to public domain books. See the Wikipedia page for more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Library

Thanks!

Why is bit.ly blocked? As far as I know it's just a popular URL shortener, not malicious itself.

Thanks in advance.

fok.nl should not be listed, it is a Dutch news site.

Just a video sharing site

As Per: mitchellkrogza/nginx-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker#34

should be removed because it is the site of a common german ISP who sets his homepage as the starting page in the browser which causes the people to use their search site and get to the resulting page with this referrer. They also provide an modified browser which might also send this referrer.

The Github.io Site of FontAwesome (fortawesome.github.io) is being falsely blocked by the list.

Hi Mitchell

Scrapy is a python framework for extracting structured data from web pages.

As such it is a crawler, true, but the site itself is not malicious.

Its website, http://scrapy.org/ is blocked by Badd-Boyz-Hosts.

playvids.com
livecam.com
extralunchmoney.com

Just a site to remove the referrer.
Or is there something fishy about this one?

Hi @mitchellkrogza Mitchell, I notice the repo now contains many direct IP addresses.

I'm curious about the source of these, and how this ultimately gets curated. I'm guessing these come from your logs?

maxthon.com itself is Maxthon browser's site. you should block:

stat-c.maxthon.com
dcs.maxthon.com

instead.

Hi,

I am using the "Unified hosts" from Steven Black which also includes one of your hosts "Mitchell Krog's - Badd Boyz Hosts".

A quick look and test seems there are many good sites that are on your block list. Not sure why they were blocked. Did you check if these sites are actually harmful?

Can you take a look at all your filters and remove the good ones from them? For now, please unblock the two in the title. I will continue to monitor and if more are found, I will have no other option but to completely remove this host itself. Thanks!

I’ve noticed you list the following websites as spam:

nibbler.silktide.com

And

silktide.com

I work at Silktide and I wanted to shed light on the company and what we do.

Nibbler is a website testing tool (free) that many people use to check their websites. It does spider a website, but only if requested. It is not automatic and does not randomly spider websites.

Silktide is our company name - the silktide.com domain is our company website. It is not a spam site nor does it do anything other than host our website and Nibbler on its own subdomain.

As a PiHole user myself, I have whitelisted both to prevent issues with accessing our own website but I felt it was incorrectly blacklisted and opened this issue.

abc.xyz is now a false positive - while this probably was a true positive before, Google has now bought this domain and runs it for Alphabet Inc, the new holding company of Google, Nest, et cetera.

VPN ?

Looks like a recent update added fark.com which is... well, it's Fark. It's been around forever, I can't imagine they're resorting to referrer spamming. Thanks!

Tube8 is a porn site, part of the Pornhub network.

tube8.com

fiverr.com is a legitimate freelancing website. Not sure how it got picked up.

These SEO backlink checker (& more) websites shouldn't be in the list:

• ahrefs.com
• moz.com
• semrush.com

Afaik all of them respect good practices

This is a webhosting company and by blacklisting them you have broken DNS for anyone using the default DNS servers ate site5.com

Why is this blocked?

Weebly itself is a free hosting provider.

brakrock.be should not be in the list, as it is a music festival in Belgium

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mitchellkrogza/Badd-Boyz-Hosts/master/hosts

You should maybe remove this domains from the list.

@funilrys txxx.com is a porn site.

This site is Taiwan's News Media "Eastern Broadcasting Co., Ltd."
Please unblock this site on hosts file, thank you.

If you ever find any false positives or blacklisted domains that you believe should not be blacklisted on this blocker please list them separately as issues here explaining why they should not be on the blocker and they will be investigated and promptly removed if found to be valid removals.

Unfortunately this list started over a year ago which was originally based on a few other lists which did contain a few false positives. Most have been ironed out over the past few months thanks to issues noted on this and other repo's I run or contribute to.

The original list from where this began had a mere 200+ listings which now has grown into over 3800+ strong which has been built day by day through monitoring of my servers logs of 18 very busy web sites. So yes there may be a few remnants from the original list which do not belong here. I have spent into the thousands of hours building this blocker and maintaining this list.

It is NOT the intention of this blocker to block out valid domains and services and I maintain a very clean list which is also regularly tested for dead domains and expired domains which are also removed every now and again to keep the list clean and functional as it should be.

So if you find anything being blocked that you believe is unwarranted, kindly list it here under issues and the matter will be looked into and promptly attended to.

@daniel-widrick said (StevenBlack/hosts#609):

Can't see a reason for this service to be blocked. rebelmouse.com

Please check this domain.
forodvd.com
Wrongly blocked on your list.

doctissimo.fr (and forum.doctissimo.fr) is a big French health-related site. I see no reason for it to be included.

maybe was a bad site some years ago.
It's my own domain since 2016

@alexbel said:

Wiki page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITMO_University

This request include all ifmo.ru sub-domain(s).

Reference:

• StevenBlack/hosts#758

Not so long ago you were quick to exclude major Russian social network ok.ru from your hosts file.

Not it comes to Russian blog platform Liveinternet, which is mentioned here twice as liveinternet.ru and www.liveinternet.ru. It exists since 2003, its creator German Klimenko is the Kremlin’s official Internet adviser since January 2016. Respectable reference to reconsider, isn’t it?

The only reason of current ban I could think of is that Liveinternet (Russian alternative to Livejournal), displays ads for free users, but uses dedicated sub domain ad.liveinternet.ru for that purpose (like even Youtube does), which I do not ask to remove.

@mitchellkrogza statsfe2.update.microsoft.com.akadns.net is needed for Windows Update to work properly. Please refer to https://github.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/tree/master/data/hosts for more information if you wish but the mentioned domain either has to be removed or commented otherwise Windows Update takes longer time to initiate(until it switches to another domain).Thank you.

Hello!

ameblo.jp is a famous Japanese blogging website by Ameba, it should not be blocked.

More information on the Wikipedia page :-)

but...is this browser upload data to cliqz.com? (I think it will do this only when that is enabled in settings.

Not sure why this is included - it's the forums for iOS/Android gaming site https://toucharcade.com

Hi there,

One of my users reported: streamillimité.com
