Ad blocking via hosts file #5

Open darthlukan opened 8 years ago

darthlukan commented 8 years ago

Being able to block ads via the hosts file has come up on the forums. Since it involves changing a system config file, a hook should probably be made available via the Control Center.

So should I bother forking advert-block-antix, or are we just going to bung their script (with yad --> zentiy changes) in one of the peppermint packages and call it from the peppermint-control-center ?

[EDIT] In fact their repo https://github.com/antiX-Linux/advert-block-antix stubbornly refuses to fork

Forking it is fine, we just add it as a dep to peppermint control center when we're ready to hook it into the control center is all. I've gone ahead and forked it for you here :)
