Update Hosts.txt #81

Closed ignaciocastro closed 1 year ago

ignaciocastro commented 1 year ago

Adds IPs from recent *.adobe.io services. This should add more time between Adobe creating a new subdomain and the user receiving an unregistered window. Tests show these don't interfere with any Photoshop service (including generative fill, working as expected) but more testing would be appreciated.

One of the people from the genP discord (allstart4u) provided a new list of addresses to block. The old list was bloated, and the new one seems to work fine.

Just out of curiosity, how did you get the IPs in your list? I did a DNS lookup for the URLs in the new hosts list, and they seem to point to 8 IPs:

34.237.241.83
18.213.11.84
54.224.241.105
50.16.47.176
52.6.155.20
52.22.41.97
3.233.129.217
3.219.243.226

50.16.47.176 and 3.233.129.217 match between the two, but the others are different.

Hello. I noticed that Adobe:

They do seem to eventually return to older IPs, so it might still be a good idea to maintain them on the hosts file.

If we can use regular expressions like ^0\.0\.0\.0\s+[a-z0-9]{10}\.adobe\.io$ in the host file ... would have less work to spy on the traffic

I don't think windows' hosts file supports regex, only wildcards :(
