How to report false positives? #78

Closed vendion closed 1 year ago

vendion commented 1 year ago

In testing fdns I found that some things are getting incorrectly flagged as an "ad" and therefore getting dropped. For example running fdns -monitor https://airebrake.io does not get resolved and in the monitor I see the following:

2x  ad  airbrake.io, dropped
ad  airbrake.io, dropped
ad  airbrake.io, dropped
2x  ad  www.airbrake.io, dropped

The thing is https://airbrake.io is not an ad network, but instead is a application monitoring solution.

Another thing that probably incorrectly breaks is this widget on Google services

Inbox-5-vendion-gmail-com-Gmail

in the monitor I see the following

2x  tracker  ogs.google.com, dropped

What is the best way to report these kinds of issues, seeing as how the proxies are most likely not managed directly by this project?

Okay, so I eventually was able to work out that the blocking wasn't done by the remote DNS server used, but rather fdns has a local list of domains to block. After going in there and removing the needed entries, everything is working.
