We use the following host lists for content blocking:
https://block.energized.pro/unified/formats/unbound.conf
https://block.energized.pro/extensions/xtreme/formats/unbound.conf
https://block.energized.pro/extensions/regional/formats/unbound.conf
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AmanoTeam/AmnDNS/master/etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/blacklist.conf
Note that, unlike other DNS services that focus only on filtering content related to ads, analytics and malware, we also block content related to social media (e.g. Facebook, Twitter) and pornography.
If you don't want anything but ads, analytics and malware to be blocked, don't use AmnDNS. It will most likely break your favorite app or website.
We do not collect, store, use or share any information about queries or access to our servers.
We use the data collected by this public research project to obtain the origin server IP address of some sites that currently use Cloudflare.
When a user performs a DNS query for a domain that is on our list of known IPs, we return the actual IP address that the domain is pointing to, not the IP address provided by Cloudflare. The purpose of this is to decrease the amount of information that is transmitted to Cloudflare when accessing any website that is currently using this service.
