This repository provides a host and domainname based blocklist specifically designed for use with dnsmasq. Most entries are gathered from multiple, actively maintained sources and automatically updated, cleaned, optimized and moderated on a daily basis. The blocklists support both ipv4 and ipv6.
The optimizer makes full use of dnsmasqs capability to block entire domains such as *.doubleclick.net (domains.txt). This reduces the chance of missing any new subdomains and significantly reduces the size of the blocklists. Hostnames that cannot be blocked on a domain level will still be listed in a regular hostname based blocklist (hostnames.txt).
It's important to use both domains.txt and hostnames.txt simultaniously in dnsmasq to get full coverage!

- Download the following two files (or use a daily cronjob to do it automatically)
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists/master/hostnames.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists/master/domains.txt
- Add the following lines to your dnsmasq.conf
conf-file=/path/to/domains.txt
addn-hosts=/path/to/hostnames.txt
- Restart dnsmasq (reload will not update list changes)
sudo service dnsmasq restart
Because Pi-hole does not fully support loading of dnsmasq domain filters (details here), you should add your own .conf file in /etc/dnsmasq.d/. This way you can still use our blocklists with Pi-hole, but updating has to be done by an external daily cronjob. It's also recommended to remove all default Pi-hole lists, since these are already included in our list in a more efficient manner.
- Add the following lines to
/etc/dnsmasq.d/99-pihole-custom-lists.conf(example filename)
conf-file=/path/to/domains.txt
addn-hosts=/path/to/hostnames.txt
- (Optional, but recommended) Remove the default Pi-hole lists in
/etc/pihole/adlists.list - Update Pi-hole
pihole -g
DNS over HTTPS will prevent clients in your network from using the default local DNS services. Mozilla Firefox has a feature to disable DOH network wide for all clients as described here.
If you use domains.txt in your dnsmasq configuration you will have DOH disabled on all clients by default.
