Another highly controversial list solely based on personal(or should i say...paranoid) opinion and definitely not intended for use in much wider userbase like the one here. Just for example:
So far i'm very much 👎 for adding this. |
|
@dnmTX thank you for feedback. 💟 |
|
Woah Dan @dnmTX go easy on my friend Tomasz @FadeMind here. But you bring some good points. Thanks for this Tomasz @FadeMind, a quick check: So we have about 36% of this suggested list already. |
|
Using a new beta feature of ghosts if I compare it to the |
|
Here are the unique domains, 222 domains total. |
|
Looking at the TLD distribution of the 222 new domains -- from my system clipboard. One very nice upside: 28 new |
|
Those 28 |

Steve @StevenBlack i wasn't attacking him or something. I was just expressing my frustration at another controversial list. |
|
@StevenBlack no problem. I just found new source. Now we know whats goin on there. |
|
I'd love to become much, much stronger on Asian domains. Especially |
|
@StevenBlack can you just copy these to your list? |
|
I'm thinking about it Tomasz @FadeMind. I just don't know the Asian space at all, so I'm hesitant to judge. |
Yeah,i second that. Everything Asia based just copy/paste and...life is good 😉 |
|
I kind of went through the list owner's profile and it's obvious that he's very focused on privacy. He even ofering his own DoH Server. So i'm prety sure that he did the homework before adding any of those domains to his personal list,it's just.....some are...kind of overboard. |
|
May I ask why was These two domains seem to be used by Apple for CDN and other stuff. I've heard some complaints about Apple's operating systems downloading a considerable amount of data from those domains, presumably system updates. But so far, I've found no evidence showing those domains were used for tracking or hosting malware. |
|
@dnmTX you should ping @ookangzheng for knowledge. If these domains are false positive - delete them. |
|
@FadeMind here,just FYI,it was random search on my end. Don't know anything about that list: |
@dnmTX Yep, that's from the author of the original blacklist file, with no explanation about how "bogus" that domain is.
@FadeMind What do you mean by "you should ping"? Last time I checked, you're the one who opened this PR, not that user. |
|
No need to argue about such a small thing guys. Steve @StevenBlack if the curator doesn't respond soon,i'd say just remove them. |
|
If I remember correctly, those flagged as I monitored my iPhone activity, and I don't have any clue on this domain |
|
I enabled the built-in App Privacy Report in iOS and found only the system apps that do iCloud syncing accessed one of the domains on my device. No activity for the other one. @dnmTX @StevenBlack Since the original author isn't 100% sure about the behavior of the two domains in question, please reconsider the addition of those entries. Also, I'd like to point out having no clue what it does is not a valid reason to add domains to a public blocklist. But I'm not coming after @FadeMind or @ookangzheng because no single person is responsible for both identifying the domain and creating the PR in this case. |
|
@jankytay is anything broken/not working on your end when those two are blocked? |

Steve @StevenBlack it's your call on this one. |
@dnmTX I've kept having iCloud sync issues since May, including slow document downloads, duplicated Shortcuts, and unreliable auto backup. But I assumed it was something else, not a hosts list I trust suddenly blocked domains they are unsure about. "Presume" is not good enough for a public blocklist that does not have stable/release branches. Everything has to be moderately reasonable, backed up by evidence.
@FadeMind I'm going to reiterate this: you're the one who opened this PR, not ookangzhang or me. Also, I'm using SteveBlack's hosts, not ookangzhang's. So you are the one responsible for contacting the original author and submitting issues to the original repo, not me or dnmTX.
@ookangzhang I am here for the "Unified hosts", which consists of adware + malware, not "The Evil Red + Prism". And feel free to leave out your rudeness in the draft before hitting the comment button. |
@StevenBlack please review and merge if you like.
