Domains in list break Ring Central app #2002

Closed smcclosr closed 2 years ago

smcclosr commented 2 years ago

For the web app https://app.ringcentral.com, the following domains need to be removed:

som.ringcentral.com mpsnare.iesnare.com

from the lists:

master/hosts master/alternates/fakenews-gambling-porn/hosts

Once they are whitelisted, the site works.

Hello! Thank you for opening your first issue in this repo. It’s people like you who make these host files better!

Hello @smcclosr thank you for this.

The domain som.ringcentral.com comes to us via Adguard-cname list. As such, this domain in a DNS CNAME cloak for ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. As per:

$ dig som.ringcentral.com                                                                               
som.ringcentral.com.    9770    IN  CNAME   ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net.
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.160
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.12
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.180
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.169
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.201
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.149
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.137
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.128
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.219
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.115
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.120
ringcentral.com.ssl.sc.omtrdc.net. 180 IN A 63.140.38.123

My guess is, that's not gonna get removed.

The domain mpsnare.iesnare.com comes to us from two lists: adaway.org and mvps.org, therefore it's double-sourced. That said, the mvps.org list may be dropped soon. As for its inclusion in the adaway.org list, you can always try making your case at https://github.com/AdAway/adaway.github.io/issues. Ping @jawz101 about that.

removed. Looks like iesnare is made by a company called Iovation which is now a subsidiary of TransUnion. A product detect fraudulent activity w/ fingerprinting as well as for marketing.

Most of our processing activities are based on the legitimate interest condition. This includes almost all of our Fraud Prevention and Device Risk products. These legitimate interests include the processing of personal data strictly necessary for the purposes of prevention of fraud, unlawful acts and other forms of cybercrime.

We may also process business to business marketing data for the purposes of direct marketing to our business customers under this lawful basis.
