posted 5 years agoHi,
Thank you for the kind words.
For what it's worth I did want to clarify that it is a list based blocker, with a base list included in the underlying code. It then checks for new versions of the list, which is actively updated and centrally maintained and, in fact, is the same list used across blockerDNS's different blocking options (the browser extensions, DNS over TLS, DNS over HTTPS and standard DNS). The most recent list update was March 24.
If you're ever interested, you can pull a copy of the list from the same place the extension itself does: https://blockerdns.com/hosts-ads.json (It's over 46k items long though, so you may not want to open it on your phone!)
Take care, and keep those hands washed!
