## <a name="sources"></a> Which sources are used for the lists and how are the lists compiled on the basis of these sources? ## <a name="sources"></a> Which sources are used for the lists and how are the lists compiled on the basis of these sources?
My lists are not a blunt one-to-one copy from other sources. The versions are compiled individually using basic sources, own extensions, domain categories, newly registered domains (NRDs) and Top 1M lists (Umbrella, Cloudflare, Tranco, Chrome, DomCop, ...). My lists are not simple one-to-one copies from other sources. Each version is individually compiled using a combination of foundational sources, custom extensions, domain categories, newly registered domains (NRDs), and various Top 1M lists (including Umbrella, Cloudflare, Tranco, Chrome, DomCop, and others). I actively remove false positives and dead domains, and incorporate domains reported by the community.
False positives and dead domains are removed. Domains reported by the community have been added.
Furthermore, I regularly analyse logs in several networks to find potentially blockable domains that have not yet been blocked.
The total base list from which the domains for the individual lists are extracted currently comprises ~45M domains. This also includes the domains from the top 1M lists of the last 24+ months. This merged top list is used, among other things, to identify popular domains. Additionally, I regularly analyze network logs to identify potentially blockable domains that have not yet been listed. The comprehensive base list currently contains approximately 45 million domains, including entries from the Top 1M lists spanning the past 24+ months. This aggregated list is also leveraged to identify and track popular domains.
