Updated!

Hello,
blocking www.ecdinterface.philips.com blocks Philips hue bridge from being controlled by the Hue App outside the house

Hello,

Blocking api.nfl.com blocks the nfl fantasy app. App won't start with that domain blocked.

Thanks.

@KOX599 Updated, with the exceptions of cloudservices.roku.com (does blocking that affect any other Roku services?) and samsung.net/ads (can't block paths, only domains/subdomains)!

I found more
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/wassname/b594c63222f9e4c83ea23c818440901b/raw/1b0afd2aecf3a099f1681b1cf18fc0e6e2fa116a/Samsung%2520Smart-TV%2520Blocklist%2520Adlist%2520(for%2520PiHole)

I don't know, maybe more blocks, I'm not sure. cloudservices.roku.com and this is samsung.net/ads i forgot to delete

how to gist to raw ?

how to gist to raw ?

Add /raw to the end of this url.
It becomes: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/hkamran80/779019103fcd306979411d44c8d38459/raw

aviary.amazon.de should absolutely be blocked, but also aviary.amazon.com

With my Fire TV, I also have strange requests to

o2r2hew432.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
andr-25-aftkmst12-641002610.api.amazonvideo.com
prod.amazoncrl.com
arcus-uswest.amazon.com

that I believe can be blocked.

This site was removed on October 11, 2021 following @1nsane62's comment. Can you confirm that you are running an up-to-date version of this blocklist?

Whoops sorry. Must have been mistaken

No worries!

For samsung tv - update option for apps from store and firmware are also blocked?

This block YouTube ads ( LG not Samsung )

@hkamran80 , nice! But infolink.pavv.co.k is a "non-domain entry" - please fix. Thank you ❤️
