eBlocker curated lists #
eBlocker already provides curated and integrated pattern and domain blocker list, which are updated daily. These blocker lists are chosen for a good balance between protection and convenience, so most websites and services still work.
For higher tracker protection we also provide the DuckDuckGo Tracker Radar pattern blocker, which will cause some websites and services to break. Use with care!
Recommendation #
Generally it is not recommended to add additional list. Additional list will mostly result in websites, apps and services to break – but not improve privacy at all. Please note that adding more blocker list will usually not help more!
Please add lists with great care and try not to use domain lists as they will cause over-blocking in most cases. Pattern list in easylist format are the much better choice as they block individual „bad URLs“ but not the whole domain.
In any case: Make sure you know what you are doing and don‘t add lists blindly.
Additional lists #
There are many block lists available in the Internet, but most are not well maintained. The following two websites offer a broad collection of block lists.
On https://filterlists.com/ you can find a lot of filter lists. Here you can for example search for “AdBlock” lists, which you can import into the eBlocker Pattern Blocker. Make sure that you select the “easylist” format for such lists.
At https://firebog.net/ you will find mainly domain and etc.hosts lists. Always pay attention to the beginning of the lists. If you find an IP address at the beginning (127.0.0.1 or for example 0.0.0.0), it is an etc.hosts list.
