This is a strict, curated whitelist for AdGuard Home with a focus on enforcing privacy and security.
It also helps avoid ads, trackers and malware, and blocks tracking and telemetry whenever possible, by default.
It's a great starting point for people who wish to run AdGuard Home in a strict whitelisting manner.
ℹ Please learn AdGuard Home's interface before using this list.

- As of Dec 8th, 2024 I've paused updating this repo and am no longer using AdGuard Home
- This is due to bad release of AdGuard Home (related to permissions) that broke AdGuard Home's install on Windows 11 making it unviable
- I suggest you consider better options like AdGuard for Windows (paid, but sometimes it's cheap)
- I'm likely no longer going to update this repo
