[FALSE-POSITIVE?] Windows Weather application no connection to service #159

Closed sppmasterspp closed 3 years ago

sppmasterspp commented 3 years ago

When I use your domain block list filter I'm unable to use the Weather application in Windows 10. It just says there is no connection probably because a domain is blocked. Is this communication considered as spy or telemetry or it's just wrong addition to the list.

It's is TrackWare :smiley: so there could be a close relation to that :+1:

May I suggest you have a look out of your windows instead :sun_behind_small_cloud:

Nice joke @spirillen , I like it. Here it's really cold outside at the moment and I don't like to open the windows and use my nose as a probe to measure the temperature. But at least, does anyone know the DNS associated with this service,

@sppmasterspp did you find out which domain(s) causing your issues yet? Without that info no one here will be able to provide you with any assistance.

No I didn't find it sorry. This filter seems to be very in-depth and exhaustive but in Windows I even get a message that I'm not connected to the Internet (with network icon showing no connection) which is a bit inconvenient for me but still very confusing to the others using the PC. So I simply will not use it. You can close this. Thanks for your work.
