The details!

What do you do exactly.

We run AdGuard Home on a Linode server that utilizes Unbound for DNS resolution, we use Let's Encrypt and Certbot to keep our domain up to date with valid TLS.

What blocklists do you use?

Well, our goal is to stay problem free 100% of the time while maximizing our effectiveness. The lists we use are as follows:

How is my information safe?

We collect non-anonymized logs over a rolling 24 hour window in order to combat abuse. Rest assured, we are only able to see what domains you visit by the very nature of DNS. What you do on the site is between you and them! Requests from abusive IP addresses or requests for abusive domains are dropped (no response). The list of what IPs and domains we block are available below:

Why are you doing this?

We hate ads, and trackers, and all the nasty crap you deal with online. We see people struggle to setup local adblocking or just want adblocking on the go, and we do too, so instead of running personal VPN's and guiding others to set them up, we decided why not create a public server setup how we want, and let other people use it too, and thus BlissDNS was born.
