Update:

I know it sometimes take me a few days to implement some of the pull requests, but my health doesnt like playing nice unfortunately, So, I will get around to them as soon as I can.

Adobe-URL-Block-List

This is a curated list of all the Adobe URL/IP blocklist declared in the hosts file.

If you have any extra domains/IPs, you can either fork this repository and follow instructions for Adding the records in your fork or by opening an issue.

Applying the records in your hosts file

Via a script

Simply run apply.bat as Administrator and it will create a hosts.bak on the root of this repository so you can manually revert it later. Then adds the records from the hosts file on to your system.

Applying the records manually

The location of the hosts file is located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc or by opening the Run dialog with Win+ R, you can access it with:

%windir%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Note

Be sure you keep a backup of your previous hosts file first!

Make sure you run your text editor as with admin privilages, otherwise, you won't be able to save changes to the hosts file. Copy and paste the full list into the hosts file and save it.

You may need to check your settings to show hidden files, Once there, then overwrite with the host file or add the full list to your host file.

Adding the records

You'll need to have a version of Python 3.9 or higher installed to add the records and sync across hosts, dnsamsq, and pihole.txt.

Add a domain name or IP with:

py lists.py -a 192.168.0.0 domain.example.com

The script will automatically warn you if a record already exists and skips it.

Checking for duplicates

You can also check for duplicates with -c or --check flags.

py lists.py -c

Likewise, using flags -rd or --remove-duplicates will automatically remove any duplicates and retroactively applies to all files.

py lists.py -rd
