Considerations for the Light + Normal lists #1097

Closed yokoffing closed 1 year ago

yokoffing commented 1 year ago

Which domain(s) should be blocked?

See thread.

Why should these domain(s) be blocked?

Idk if these domains are left out intentionally or not.

hagezi commented 1 year ago

tags.tiqcdn.com - blocked only in ultimate: Unblocked to bypass the adblock detection on some popular German websites, like Bild.de, Sport1.de, ...

fls-*.amazon.* - blocked in pro, pro++, ultimate: Unblocked because it breaks Amazon in-app browsing history.

aan.amazon.* - blocked in pro++, ultimate: According to older reports, blocking causes the Amazon app not to work properly. I haven't found any news on this at the moment. I'll block it and then we'll see.

aax-*.amazon.* and aax-*-retail-direct.amazon-adsystem.com - not blocked: Unblocked because it is used within the Amazon app to navigate between sponsored and suggested products (referral).

api.*-*-*.aiv-delivery.net - blocked only by CNAME global.telemetry.insights.video.a2z.com in all lists: fixed in next update

app.adjust.* - only blocked in ultimate: Unblocked because they are referral domains. See e.g. https://help.adjust.com/en/article/app-store-custom-product-pages

c.amazon-adsystem.com - not blocked: Unblocked because it breaks CNN Videos and more, See e.g. https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/issues/899

ct.pinterest.com - not blocked: Conversion Tags, redirect, will be blocked in aggressive lists on next update

px-cloud.net - blocked in pro++, ultimate: will be blocked in all lists on next update

ttplugins.ttpsdk.info - blocked in pro, pro++, ultimate: will be blocked in all lists on next update

dpm.demdex.net- blocked in ultimate: Unblocked because it breaks Sky Ticket (WOW) and Hulu

newrelic.com - blocked in all list versions

@hagezi Thank you for the report! It wasn't my intention for you to do this all by yourself (though you can do this more efficiently than I can) 😅

hagezi commented 1 year ago

@yokoffing No problem.

yokoffing commented 1 year ago

fls-*.amazon.* - blocked in pro, pro++, ultimate: aan.amazon.* - blocked in pro++, ultimate

I'm surprised we keep these in the Pro lists if it causes breakage.

@yokoffing

fls-*.amazon.*

Forrester Log Service - market analytics company: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/adminguide/workspaces-port-requirements.html

No real break, only the browsing history is not "filled" so remains empty. Because it is the Forester Log Service (fls), I had blocked it in all lists. But there were users who wanted to use the browsing history, so it was unblocked in Light and Normal.

aan.amazon.*

Old reports say that the Amazon app does not work when the aan domains are blocked. I have currently tested it, but do not find any restrictions. Therefore the domains will be added to all lists in the next update. Let's see who will "scream" then. If there are any objections, now is the right time.

yokoffing commented 1 year ago

Sounds good! We can close this out if you're satisfied with it.

Thanks, domain(s) has been added to the denylist and will be added in the next update.
