## What it is
A curated collection of DNS blocklists for Pi-hole that protect against fake shops, advertising, tracking, and other internet threats. It also provides anti-blocklists (allowlists) to unblock domains that are wrongly caught by the filters.

## Use cases
- block fake shops and scam webshops on my home network
- import blocklists into pi-hole to stop ads and tracking
- protect family network devices from phishing and rip-off sites
- find allowlists to unblock payment services blocked by pi-hole
- curated dns blocklists in abp-style format
- block tracking domains network-wide with pi-hole

## When to choose
- you run Pi-hole (v5.22+ or v6) and want ready-made, community-maintained blocklists against fakeshops, ads, and trackers
- you need companion anti-blocklists to selectively unblock legitimate services
- you want a German-community-curated list of suspicious webshops

## When to avoid
- you use an ad blocker other than DNS-based filtering (e.g., browser extensions needing standard EasyList formats)
- you need a general-purpose malware or phishing feed with SLAs and enterprise support
- you cannot run `pihole -up` to a Pi-hole version supporting the ABP-style list format
