This is the host for my toniebox - a kids toy. Can’t use the product without this host.

Here’s the PR: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts/pull/2586

I’ve found find the original context for adding this domain to the blocklist. https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-11993-toniebox_reverse_engineering#t=3146

Beginning at 32 minutes they discuss this domain. I might be fine with leaving it on the blocklist. Would be interested in the company weighing in here. I’ve sent them an email with a link to this issue. Recording every interaction with this kids toy is not really OK.

Blocked since Day one. NEVER had issues with two Tonie Boxines. Also not with new figurines!

Must be just me then. Closing. Thanks!
