Wildcard blocking
I love this project! But instead of having over 30,000 domains, is it possible to make wildcard blocking? So that there can few thousand domains and there's going to be faster lookups and resolution. Is it possible?
@rubfi is this project alive?
Hi @HappyGuy22 ,
Thanks for you comment.
The project was just a proof-of-concept. At this moment I'm not planning to continue further the development.
Wildcards are an interesting option for reducing the size of the files to process, but I wanted a solution based on host files already public on Internet (this helps having the domain list updated), so this is why I opted to process the hosts files in smaller files and making the domain based search.
Thanks for the reply @rubfi. @anudeepND was maintaining a wildcard blacklist text file, recently it was removed form the repo, I contacted him and he said he'll re-upload it in some days https://github.com/anudeepND/blacklist
Hey @rubfi .
Is this project still relevant? Does it work currently?
