An anti-fascist domains blocklist of QAnon, conspiracy, fake news, far-right and hateful websites.
By blocking the websites linked to hate groups and bad actors, it aims to defuse recruitment, propaganda and slow the spread of disinformation via tactics such as psyops, astroturfing, trolls, false flags, sockpuppeting, stochastic terrorism, FUD, etc.
A domains blocklist only blocks entire websites: it's unfortunately unable to block anything on social media where radicalization often happens due to poor or complicit moderation. It will still definitely reduce exposition to false and harmful informations. Fascists prey on the vulnerable so stay vigilant and consider also using a social media blocklist if needed.

Clone this repository and add one domain per line in .txt files stored in the sources folder. Blocked sites are organized using subfolders and .txt files within the sources folder. Use comments (#) and markdown files (.md) to add more information and references.
For the
https://www.example.comwebsite, addexample.comon a new line of thesources/default.txtfile.
You can paste the full URL: the update script will clean it and make it a domain. As the hosts format does not automatically block subdomains (e.g. subdomain.example.com), they have to be explicitely added to the list to maintain compatibility.
It is possible to add TLDs (e.g. com, without the dot) to the list, they will be blocked by Dnsmasq, adblockers and uBlacklist. Domains related to Fediverse instances (Mastodon, Peertube, etc.) should be put in .txt files with fediverse in their names (e.g. Bad Fediverse is bad.txt) so that they are included in the Fediverse blocklists.
Then, when you push your changes to the sources folder, GitHub actions automatically generate new versions of the blocklists. Should you want to generate them yourself, you can run the scripts/update.sh script (prerequisites : bash, python).
Finally, make a pull request: it will be reviewed and approve it within a few days.
External lists can be imported by adding them to the import/importlist.txt as a new line in the following format: list name.txt|url. They are automatically downloaded twice a day, cleaned (some formats only), copied to the sources/_imported/folder and thus added to the list generation database. The domain list in the import/allowlist.txt file serves as an exception ruleset for imported lists.
If you have no idea how Git works, you can still contribute! Just open an issue with the URLs you would like to add to the list (or remove, false positives happen!), grouping them by language and categories if possible. We'll check and add them shortly.
