My Pi-hole setup is blocking 1,702,945 domains, so it can be a way of saving bandwidth and helping fellow network users on my network avoid known blacklisted malicious websites. Granted, it is not perfect and it will always be a game of cat and mouse, especially with methods like <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2017\/04\/20\/how-to-spot-a-phishing-attempt-fake-apple-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this,\u00a0<\/a>when it comes to blocking domains. But if you&#8217;re looking for a small weekend project for your home or small office, I strongly recommend looking into <a href=\"https:\/\/pi-hole.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pi-hole<\/a>. It&#8217;s a better means of blocking in my opinion than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?source=hp&amp;q=zitstif+hosts+file&amp;oq=zitstif+hosts+file&amp;gs_l=psy-ab.3..33i21k1.486.2580.0.2677.18.11.0.0.0.0.248.1242.0j2j4.6.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..12.3.628...0j0i131k1j0i10k1j0i30k1.0.Y-JJgOLrT-E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hosts file method<\/a> especially with fixed location desktop computers (although, on a side note you could VPN into your network with mobile devices and still use your own personal Pi-hole). With that being said, I&#8217;m hosting another huge blacklist of domains\/IPs on my google drive, in two formats. One only has the hosts, and the other has a hosts file format (i.e. 127.0.0.1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BadWebsite.com):<\/p>\n<p>HostsOnly (28.1 MB) &#8211; sha1sum &#8211; 34a86bcb2b4dba37818fd7de39252b<wbr \/>342b9c2f6d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BxZG1yRxL_q4aVlNU3N3eVhyRTQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BxZG1yRxL_q4aVlNU3N3eVhyRTQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>HostsLoopback (44.4 MB) &#8211; sha1sum &#8211; e3bdad79c32d7eed3e65c49df57888<wbr \/>20e675b78d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BxZG1yRxL_q4VTQxRERNVmFkLVU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BxZG1yRxL_q4VTQxRERNVmFkLVU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Currently, I&#8217;ve been using Pi-hole as a means of blocking ads, malicious websites, and other undesirable things in my own personal network.
