Social Media via #DNS blockieren?
Ich habe gemerkt, dass es keine dedizierten Blocklisten pro Service/Anbieter gibt. Jedenfalls hab ich keine gefunden.
Das ist hinderlich, wenn man bspw. #Facebook und #Instagram, aber nicht #WhatsApp blockieren möchte.
Also habe ich selbst Listen zusammengestellt und werde diese regelmäßig aktualisieren.

Academic research finds economic, technical and operational harms from Italy’s Piracy Shield

Walled Culture first wrote about Piracy Shield, Italy’s automated system for tackling alleged copyright infringement in the streaming sector, two years ago. Since then, we have written about the serious problems that soon emerged. But instead of fixing those issues, the government body that runs the scheme, Italy’s AGCOM (the Italian Authority for Communications Guarantees), has extended […]

Exploring #DNS4EU a little further and throwing myself back to research I was involved in a while back (https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.05638), surprisingly shows that the #European #resolver shows no problems resolving the sanctioned entities of #RussiaToday and #Sputniknews.

An oversight? I would be less surprised if the unfiltered #resolvers resolve the domain names, but even the protective ones resolve to the correct domain names, revealing that #DNSblocking is not applied on #EU cyber-resiliency flagship project.

I keep seeing governments treat DNS resolvers like censorship tools. Obviously, they’re not meant to be.

Blocking at the DNS level is imprecise and doesn’t remove bad actors. It’s like trying to fix a leaky faucet with a sledgehammer.

Now they're going even further, pressuring CDNs like cloudflare to block access to piracy or malicious content. But here's the catch: CDNs serve thousands of sites from shared infrastructure. One misfire, and you can literally break half the web.

Just looking at what happened in Spain with La Liga is a perfect example of how not to fight piracy. To block access to illegal streams of soccer matches, La Liga pushed for CDN-level blocking.

Instead of just stopping shady streams, the blocks affected entire domains. Legit websites went offline. Entire CDNs were caught in the crossfire, news outlets, small businesses, hobby sites. All because they happened to sit on the same servers/ips as of flagged URLs.

For instance, none of them are discussing reducing ticket fees, so normal people can take their family to a stadium, or even streaming subscription costs. It's a shame.

TorrentFreak: DNS Piracy Blocking Orders: Google, Cloudflare, and OpenDNS Respond Differently. “Pirate site blocking orders issued against DNS resolvers including OpenDNS, Google, and Cloudflare are stacking up in Europe. Since similar demands may eventually surface in other countries, including the U.S., we take a look at how these companies respond to blocking orders. Our research reveals […]

📬 Wunschtraum französischer Rechteinhaber: die großen VPN-Anbieter blockieren Piraterie!

This is an absolutely metal business decision made by OpenDNS (Cisco).

Court orders in France and Portugal are requiring the big open DNS resolvers (Google, OpenDNS, CloudFlare, etc.) to block resolution of a small list of domains for anyone in those countries.

OpenDNS seems to have decided to not implement the blocklist, and instead will just not answer any DNS queries from inside those countries.

Change implemented on a Friday evening, for maximum surprise.

I'm blocking threads.net on the DNS level with pihole, but I still can see accounts from threads in fedivers thanks to my instance being federated with threads. 🙃
I'm not quite sure how I feel about it 😐, the only thing I can do if it's starting to bothering me is migrating my account to another instance.

So sieht meine Bilanz nach 30 Tagen aus: Mehr als 50% der #DNS queries entfallen auf #google Adressen, obwohl ich selbst keine google Services ansteure. Es hat sich für mich nichts geändert, seitdem ich diese kategorisch blocke. Das gilt auch für die blockierten #facebook requests.

Dass ich kein apple fanboy bin sieht man auch. Irgendwie 😉

Hat schon jemand rausgefunden was das für eine #domain ist ?

Seit nen paar Stunden versuchen ein paar Geräte aus meinem Netzwerk dorthin zu funken, was mein #pihole natürlich unterbindet ich konnte zu den Domains noch nichts gescheites finden. #security #dnsblocking #dns
