Hello Newsletter Subscriber,

As the year draws to a close, we have some more good news for you:
|
eBlockerOS 3: The perfect Christmas present for a free Internet
|
Celebrate the holidays with eBlockerOS 3! It's our gift to the eBlocker community, which we released today - after more than a year of development. The integration of the long-awaited IPv6 support (beta) is just the start. Our Christmas present also includes numerous improvements "under the hood" as well as the latest security patches, which ensure an even more stable and secure operation. Find out more in the technical release notes and in our detailed blog article on eBlockerOS 3, which we recommend all users read.

A big thank you to DEVK Insurances and all of you!
|
We would especially like to thank the German DEVK Insurances, whose financial commitment made the development of IPv6 support possible in the first place. Together with our voluntary supporters and donors, we are developing a free Internet without annoying advertising and data collectors, where everyone can surf anonymously. You are all the driving force behind our success. Thank you, thank you, thank you for that!

Four years of eBlocker Open Source: From insolvency to innovation
|
Today we are celebrating not only eBlockerOS 3, but also our fourth birthday! At the end of 2019, we took over the five-year-old eBlocker technology from insolvency. Since 2020, we have been successfully continuing its development as an open source project with our dedicated team. We are very proud to have managed not only to continue maintaining the innovative technology, but also to jointly add major features such as IPv6 to ensure eBlockerOS remains future-proof in the long term.
|
Looking to the future: Together we can achieve more
|
The coming year also holds exciting developments for eBlockerOS. We are planning to introduce the "Online Time" feature, which is again supported by DEVK, followed by the migration to the latest Debian Linux and support for Raspberry Pi 5 at the end of 2024. In case we receive more development resources, we also plan to add DoH/DNSSEC to eBlocker DNS and fulfill further feature requests from the community. In any case, we are highly motivated to reach these milestones together with your help and make eBlockerOS even more powerful.
|
Donations are crucial: Support eBlocker!
|
Once again, we would like to thank everyone who makes the existence of our not-for-profit project possible in the first place through donations and volunteer work. Especially in the current financially challenging times, your help is essential to keep our vision of a free Internet alive. We therefore appreciate any help, no matter how small:
|
|
|
Your loyalty, support and donations are our motivation to continue fighting for a free Internet. Let's make the digital world a better place together!
|
Merry Christmas and all the very best for 2024!
|
Warm regards from Hamburg Boris, Christian and the entire eBlocker team
