About my filters

In an effort to help people better chose which (if any) of my filterlists they want to use, this page should document the purpose of some of the various lists in this repo.

The malicious website blocklist

Created in 2021 from a JSON file I was keeping, the The malicious website blocklist is yet another list with the generic purpose of "blocking bad things". Shockingly, I seem to be the first person to use this name, at least according to Google and DuckDuckGo.

Anti-Dynamic DNS

Dynamic DNS services allow someone to create a domain which resolves to their IP address, even as it changes (I'm sure someone can come up with a better explanation of this). This is fine. However, Dynamic DNS services are often used for hosting malware, phishing, and C2 servers.
