Global whitelists #2136

Hi,

in XPrivacy there is a whitelist of webpages for every single app possible.

Some apps use several tracking sites like Google Analytics, mixpanel.com or crashlytics.com.

For privacy reason, it would be a great feature, if these kind of webpages can be blocked globally for all apps. (Global Blacklist)

Although I like this idea and see how it's a natural extension to XPrivacy, there are a number of ways you can accomplish this already. Since you already have XPosed installed, let me suggest that you look into defim's UnbelovedHosts module. While XPrivacy already works very well on a per-application basis, Marcel doesn't have as much time as he used to to devlope or extend the XPrivacy feature-set.

@wbedard which doesn't mean this will not eventually be implemented by me or someone else.

Actually, I am just looking into implementing a new feature right at this moment :-) (not this one, though)

Furthermore I don't recommend using closed source Xposed modules.

@M66B You changed the title to "Global Whitelist". I rather ment a "Global Blacklist".

UnbelovedHosts afaik does not allow for path filtering like XPrivacy does. There are many instances where I would not want to block an entire domain but I would want to block all subdirectory paths of a given domain.
