GoogleHosts is an open-source project that automatically generates hosts files for ad‑blocking and domain filtering. It provides a CLI to download and update the hosts list from various mirrors.

Use cases

  • download and apply a curated hosts file to block ads and malicious domains
  • automatically update my system's hosts file on a schedule
  • integrate hosts list updates into my network security workflow
  • replace manual editing of hosts files with a generated list
  • use a reliable source for DNS blocking on Linux, macOS, or Windows

When to choose

  • You need a regularly updated, community‑maintained hosts file for ad‑blocking or security
  • You prefer a simple CLI tool that can be scripted in automation pipelines
  • You want a project with active community support and frequent releases

When to avoid

  • You require commercial licensing or want to use the hosts list for profit
  • You need a GUI application for managing hosts files
  • You need a hosts solution that integrates directly with DNS server software
