AdGuard DNS filter

Formerly AdGuard Simplified Domain names filter.

A filter composed of several other filters (AdGuard Base filter, Social media filter, Tracking Protection filter, Mobile Ads filter, EasyList and EasyPrivacy) and simplified specifically to be better compatible with DNS-level ad blocking.

The direct link to the filter: https://adguardteam.github.io/AdGuardSDNSFilter/Filters/filter.txt.

Please note, that to use this filter it is necessary to support basic ad blocking rules syntax. It does not make much sense to extract just the hosts file.

This is a default filter for AdGuard Home and for the public AdGuard DNS servers.

How to build AdGuard DNS filter manually

yarn install
yarn run build
