## About

![maintained - yes](https://img.shields.io/badge/maintained-yes-blue)[![Contributions - Welcome](https://img.shields.io/badge/contributions-welcome-blue)](https://spotify.piscinadeentropia.es/docs_contributing/)

Spotify Ads List is a list of domains that includes all the domains from which Spotify Apps get audio ads, banners...

Blocking these domains is totally legal since the only thing you are doing is redirecting requests from these domains to 0.0.0.0 also known as nowhere.

Making the list cost me a lot of time but finally it seems to work, in case you find any false positive let me know by creating an Issue, also if you want to collaborate I invite you to create a fork of the repository.

I also recommend you to complement the list with some standard lists of ad domains, here are some options:

- https://github.com/blocklistproject/Lists
- https://github.com/topics/blocklist
- https://github.com/topics/adblock
- https://github.com/topics/adblock-list

## Whitelist

In order for Spotify to function properly, a short list of domains needs to be added to its whitelist to prevent redirects from blocked to non-blocked domains from being cut off.

See the Whitelist [here](https://github.com/Isaaker/Spotify-AdsList/blob/main/Lists/WHITELIST.md)
