Extension-blocking domains removed by threat from other blacklists launched on August 12, 2017 with 614 votes, #13 of 3,214 launches that month and more than 99% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 9 years on.
In plain words
This is a GitHub project that maintains a list of domains previously blocked by extensions but subsequently removed following pressure from other blacklists. It serves developers and security researchers who need to understand which domains have been delisted and the circumstances surrounding those decisions. The project provides transparency into how blocking decisions are made and reversed across different security tools.

Yesterday the top upvoted comment for "Why We Desperately Need a New (and Better) Google" http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2057772 was adding personal domain blacklists. I offered to build this if there was enough interest so here's a minimum viable product for Chrome (Firefox soon to follow): https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/jiicbcimbjppjbckmoknagndlhjbeohb. Your feedback is welcome!

A blocklist to remove spam and bad websites from search results2025 · github.com · ▲225Hi HN! I've been fed up with search results so much that I decided to make a giant blocklist to remove garbage links by using uBlacklist. I browsed other blocklists and wasn't very satisfied from what exists now; the goal of this one is to be super organized and transparent, explaining why each site was blocked via issues. Contributions welcome! Even though around 100 domains are blocked so far, I already noticed a big improvement in casual searches. You'd be surprised how some AI generated websites can dominate the #1 page on DuckDuckGo.

A Chrome extension that will auto-reject non-essential cookies2025 · blog.bymitch.com · ▲296A FOSS chrome extension that attempts to remove the annoyance of cookie pop ups and banners. There are some extensions out there that auto-accept cookies, but I didn't find one that auto rejected cookies without either chaining some extensions together or setting up custom rules in tools like uBlock origin. So with this extension, you just need to add it for non-essential cookies to be rejected.
