@bongochong can you comment if you're okay with RethinkDNS' use of these lists? Thanks.
Amazing timing (was just about to head to work, then got this notification) but absolutely, yes. Also @shuvashish76 the lists are now WTFPL, and thanks for finding some of my content useful :) Looking forward to trying it out with ReThink!
@ignoramous @bongochong thanks for the quick reply :D
I just clicked on license here: https://github.com/bongochong/CombinedPrivacyBlockLists/blob/master/LICENSE I see WTFPL: http://www.wtfpl.net/txt/copying/
Yep! Dual license repo for now (CPAL for scripts, WTFPL for lists), as @ignoramous brought up some very good points in regard to that. Many thanks guys.
