What ??

dnmTX commented 4 years ago

@scafroglia93 so what is the difference between legit betting site and non legit one? Also,can you post some examples of non legit once,i'm just curious,that's all 😉

scafroglia93 commented 4 years ago

@dnmTX there have been cases where some betting sites operated without licenses and others that turned out to be fraudsters while continuing to operate

Can it be enough?

dnmTX commented 4 years ago

Can it be enough?

Clear enough.Thanks 👍 Now...let me clarify something to you. The gambling extension that you're using is intended to block all websites that in one way or another betting/gambling is involved,not the once without proper license only. The extension is optional and would advise you to just stop using it.

scafroglia93 commented 4 years ago

@dnmTX I'm not using the gambling extension so that's the problem

dnmTX commented 4 years ago

@scafroglia93 report it directly to the upstream's list maintainer: hosts@someonewhocares.org Sorry,should've check the lists first before "confidently" answering 😉

scafroglia93 commented 4 years ago

I understand you, I also manage the lists that I keep manually to avoid false positives. You can find them on my git

Hi Lorenzo @scafroglia93

These domains appear to all be upstream from us.

Nissar @funilrys can you comment on behalf of Badd-Boyz for 10bet.com and 12bet.com?

Look, everyone, I don't care whether a gambling site operates with a licence, or not. I only care about malware/adware/tracking, and I care that gambling sites are properly slotted into the gambling extension IF they are not involved in adware/malware/tracking.

Please note Antonio @scafroglia93 that "legit" has no meaning here. There are countless "legit" sites that do all kinds of stupid things with their platforms. The term "legit" is undefined, here. That's how it will always be. Sites either respect privacy and security, or they don't, regardless of what else they do, and whether that's legit, or not.

@StevenBlack

At some point 10bet.com and 12 bet.com would have been flagged by me for referrer spam through my Nginx blocker project. They no longer appear in any logs from the past 14 months so removing them.

StevenBlack commented 4 years ago

Closing! Thanks everybody.
