I’ve already got a ton of ‘em but I’m always on the lookout for more. What are your favorite lesser-known DNS blocklists?

Huge blocklist of gen AI websites that I've put onto my pi-holes. I believe I have one somewhere that blocks a lot of AI-generated websites as well, if I can find it in my settings I'll edit my comment.

Fantastic! That’s a great example that I wouldn’t have thought to look for.

No problem. I can't find the other blacklist but hopefully someone else on here has it, it was really useful for blocking out those spam results on search engines.

Anti Axel Springer hosts file

This file blocks all connections to sites which are from Axel Springer Verlag or have a connection with them.

Great suggestion though I had to research them because I’ve never heard of the organization.

That's a good one, considering they are currently fighting adblockers in court!
