@specter78 Can you provide some insights about these domains (like full URL, screenshots etc)? Are you using mobile apps for news sites such as indiatimes.com and thehindu.com

Don't have these.

Are you using mobile apps for news sites such as indiatimes.com and thehindu.com

I've been using these sites on both apps and browser and detected these domains through DNS logs. I had these domains blocked for >2 weeks and haven't come across any issue.

Okay. I have added growthrx.com and firebaselogging-pa.googleapis.com in https://github.com/anudeepND/blacklist/commit/55424d24d37ae53bc0af2adc7e1ad7ffb7ac71b6. *.app.link is used as a link to open the website content on the native app if it's installed, so blocking this may cause problem to many users

You added firebaselogging.googleapis.com and not firebaselogging-pa.googleapis.com, though first one is also required.
