I've sent a message off to the list maintainer via Twitter, linking back to this ticket. 🙂
for posterity - still exists on https://hostfiles.frogeye.fr/multiparty-trackers-hosts.txt
Hi, sorry for not answering earlier, been procrastinating.
For the first-party list, it's been removed since 2021-07-14.
The multi-party list is an automatically generated one, and is mostly designed for research or very cautious users. I cannot handle considering false-positives for this one. Honestly I think it should have the ✗ on https://firebog.net/ .
For lists https://hostfiles.frogeye.fr/firstparty-trackers-hosts.txt and https://hostfiles.frogeye.fr/multiparty-trackers-hosts.txt, they have an entry for #content.ibanking-services.com.
Blocking this entry requires banks who use FIS as their core provider, to always require 2FA everytime a customer logs in.
Can these entries be reconsidered? Yes technically its tracking, but it causes material impact to users and is not an easy one to track down.
