How does it work?

This is a list of adblocker filterlists from around the internet. Filterlists of any purpose, size, format, and maintenance status should be included

Types of filterlists

  • Multi-purpose

Filterlists with many purposes (i.e. blocking trackers, ads, malware, and annoyances).

  • Malware/phishing/scam protection

Filterlists for blocking malware, phishing, scams, and PUPs.

  • Tracking parameter

Filterlists which remove unneeded or tracking parameters from websites

  • Tracking protection

Filters designed to improve privacy

  • Annoyances

Filters designed to block "annoyances" of any kind. This is a broad definition, and filterlists which do not explicitly have this purpose will be sorted somewhere else.

  • Ads

Filterlists designed to block ads on any website (or one specific website). This does not include lists for one specific region!

  • Regional

Filterlists designed to block ads, trackers, annoyances, and/or malware for one specific region only.

  • Specific or unknown purpose

Filterlists with a very specific purpose but which are not specific to one region. This also includes filterlists with no known purpose.

  • Malware

Not to be confused with "Malware/phishing/scam protection". This section lists filterlists which:

  • Preform actions which decrease the user's privacy and security without their knowledge or consent (i.e. secretly allowlisting random trackers)
  • Exist only to promote a specific website
  • Seek to exploit vulnerabilities in adblockers

Users are strongly advised to avoid these lists.

Legal

Noting a filterlist here is not endorsement. All lists are under their own licenses.

NOTE:

This is very much a work in progress!
Please open an issue if this repo contains any incorrect information.
