### BlackList
A blacklist of bad domains in **DNS hosts** format and **Adblock Plus** syntax.
#### Purpose
Blocking bad domains used for serving advertisements, tracking, mining, and other nasty content.
#### What is a host file?
The hosts file, is a plain-text file used by all operating systems to map hostnames to IP addresses. Host file preferred over DNS so if a domain name is resolved by the hosts file, the request never leaves your computer.
#### Location of your hosts file
* Linux / Mac OS X, iOS, Android: `/etc/hosts`
* Winodws XP, 7, 8.0, 8.1, 10: `C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts`
* Windows 2000: `C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts`
#### What is an adblock?
Ad blocking is a software designed to prevent advertisements from appearing on a web page or an application.
