# Title: LG TV Blocklist (strict) — Pi-hole regex filters
# Updated: 2026-09-28 07:09 UTC
# Entries: 10
#
# PASTE THESE INTO PI-HOLE'S REGEX FILTERS, NOT AN ADLIST. An adlist takes
# exact domains only and silently ignores every line in this file, leaving
# you unprotected with no error shown.
#   Pi-hole UI: Domains -> Add domain -> Regex   (or: pihole --regex '<line>')
# AdGuard Home users: these work too. Wrap each line in slashes, like
# /^[a-z][a-z]\.info\.lgsmartad\.com$/, and add it as a custom filtering rule.
#
# Two kinds of line, both derived from src/ entries that already carry their
# own evidence and annotation:
#   ^<two letters>\.family$  one audited host's family, generalised to the
#                           country prefixes LG serves it from. Two-letter
#                           prefixes ONLY: it never matches the family apex
#                           or a longer label, so update and billing hosts
#                           under the same family stay reachable.
#   (\.|^)zone$            a whole-zone anchor from src/zones.txt, whose
#                           documented purpose is exactly that. STRICT only;
#                           this file has none when it is the SAFE tier.
# Neither kind puts a hostname into the eight shipped lists.
#
# WIDENING WARNING: the zone lines below block whole zones -- every
# hostname under each anchor, including hostnames this project has
# never listed or audited. If you want exact-host blocking, stay on
# lists/strict-domains.txt (or lists/strict-hosts.txt) and skip this
# file. Before enabling it, read the store carve-out in docs/faq.md,
# "I want STRICT but keep the LG Content Store": it is written for
# exactly this reach.
#
# Optional and additive: this is not one of the eight shipped lists, and never
# subscribing to it, or deleting it, leaves coverage exactly as
# strict-domains.txt and its siblings give it today. It is also not a
# replacement for them -- audited hosts with no region prefix and no zone
# anchor have no line here, so keep the list subscribed.
