Totallist (recommendation)

Big - Zelo's "Big" Blocklist: Blocks ads, tracking, metrics, telemetry, fake, phishing, malware, coins, crypto and other "crap". An all-in-one blocklist that does not block any mandatory "functions" - no strict blocking. Dead hosts (hosts addresses that no longer exist) have been removed from this list. It can be used as a standalone blocklist. The prerequisite is that the ad blocker can handle large lists. With Pihole, for example, this is no problem.

Beta/Experimental

I am currently testing an "Everything" experimental version of my blocklists with more discreet whitelisting. Testers are welcome.
More information and the links to the different versions of the blocklist can be found in the following issue: German version | English version

An attempt has been made to avoid false positive domains, but still this list may contain false positive domains. Therefore, an admin should be available to allow falsely blocked domains when you use this list. Please report false positive domains.

---

Note

The blocklists were created for purely personal, private use. They were designed to avoid false positive domains as much as possible and not to block any needed features. Maximum blocking with full functionality. They were compiled from numerous sources, my own blacklists and various whitelists. To keep the lists as small as possible, dead domains are removed regularly.

The blocklists are updated daily.
