@dimqua: The configuration specific to that is currently here: https://github.com/justdomains/ci/blob/7d0d1533f625c9a5740da1d923205a87db1b0964/convertlists.py#L556
Did you encounter a situation in which including these entries is problematic?
I suppose it would be possible to provide separate versions of the converted lists with them included and excluded.
Hi @swiftlyfalling, the EasyLists are primarily meant for blocking inside browsers. In contrast, your justdomains are primarily used for DNS-based blocking. At least that's how we are using them.
So in case of DNS-based blocking it's obviously impossible to distinguish 2nd from 3rd party sites, and some over-blocking of domains flagged with the third-party
option is to be expected.
Here are two particular peculiar cases:
download.microsoft.com CNAME 20 Answer 2-01-4ca6-0004.cdx.cedexis.net
download.windowsupdate.com CNAME 18 Answer wu-fg-shim.trafficmanager.net
wu-fg-shim.trafficmanager.net CNAME 18 Answer 2-01-3cf7-0009.cdx.cedexis.net
cedexis.net
ist contained in easyprivacy with third-party
. Seems to be a large DNS+CDN(+Tracking) provider.
Use cases vary. I think your approach of two versions of each list makes a lot of sense, and I'd appreciate if you made it happen. :)
@dimqua, why did you close this issue? Am I missing something?
@argonym I thought that the project is no longer maintained, but I was wrong. Only this repository isn't maintained.
@dimqua: Please re-open this issue, as it still exists (regardless of the state of the project). Maybe @swiftlyfalling is inclined to implement the change/feature. Or somebody else stumbling over it might make a PR.
Hi there, I noticed that your blocklists contain domains from rules like this:
||example.com^$third-party
. Why block them?
