Why should these domain(s) be blocked?

TEMU App works like malware/spyware. This site is mostly advertised on META portals/apps (FB/Insta) References:

  I can't find any others domains used by app for blocking.

@FadeMind Yes, but this ist the "official" TEMU domain. A bit hard to block out for the masses. There will be a lot of shouting. Then I would also have to block TikTok and co. I have blocked TEMU in my network via AdGuard DNS Services.

I think everyone should decide for themselves whether they want to use such crap.

What does the rest of the community think?

Maybe make and maintain a separate "Insecure/Red Flag app/domain" list like the Tracker ones and only include them in Ultimate or the more aggressive lists?

Or just make them an optional list for people to add manually and then whitelist as needed.

[FadeMind]

Maybe block them all and notice: If you using (APP NAME), then manually whitelist domains: Many users don't known RISK of using apps from China. TikTok app is the same issue. Spy every piece of you on your device.

Very few users would understand that and very few read it anyway. The same questions always come up, even though they are answered in the readme.

The lists are already enough work.
