Create custom pi-hole blocklists to block unwanted traffic to a network.
This project is in no way affiliated with the core Pi-Hole project or organization. This project was created as a contribution to the community by providing high quality blocklists. Use at your own risk.
Pi-hole dashboard with the default, light, and heavy porn blocklists installed;
Running with default ruleset | Top 1m (Light List) | All (Heavy List) |
---|---|---|
And the affect of having the porn list installed;
Currently supported lists;
- porn (via
create_blocklist_porn.pl
which creates two lists)
... light list:pi_blocklist_porn_top1m.list
(~21k domains). This list is a correlated list to only block porn sites that appear on Alex'a top 1m site list.
... heavy list:pi_blocklist_porn_all.list
(~2m domains). This list is a slightly edited list from Université Toulouse 1 Capitole. NOTE: Use caution when using this list with embedded computers. - more coming soon...
- Perl
- Array::Utils (install via
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Array::Utils'
)
- SSH to deployed pi-hole
- Copy adlists.default to adlists.list
sudo cp /etc/pihole/adlists.default /etc/pihole/adlists.list
- Edit
sudo vi /etc/pihole/adlists.list
to add one of the following lists;
... Light:https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chadmayfield/pihole-blocklists/master/lists/pi_blocklist_porn_top1m.list
... Heavyhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/chadmayfield/pihole-blocklists/master/lists/pi_blocklist_porn_all.list
- Run
pihole -g
to update all lists
pi¾pi-hole:´ $ pihole -g

NOTE: This is a work in progress and is being actively developed (for now).
- Cleanup the code! (most of this was written as PoC)
- Log output from script to file rather than STDOUT
- Add comparison to Alexa top 1 million sites to only block the top sites
- Add cron script to run from cron daily/weekly/monthly
- Add installation script for automated install
- Add additional lists to combine into one mega list
- Possibly generizie script to accept any list
- Add instructions to host the list on the pi-host itself
- Add the Cisco Umbrella OpenDNS Top 1 Million list
- Add the Majestic Million list
- Add the Stavoo Top 1 Million list
