# Title: Anti-Norton tracking list # Description: This list aims to block some of the tracking done by Norton and Avast (now owned by Norton). This list may unintentionally provide protection from trackers in your browser as well # It is recommended you cease use of said products (Norton, Avast, AVG, Avira, CCleaner), as they probably do a lot of other shady stuff that this list can't block. This list also can just be used as enhanced tracking protection even if you don't use said products regularly # Expires: 1 day # Homepage: https://github.com/iam-py-test/my_filters_001 # Last updated: 2023-7-31 # Issues url: https://github.com/iam-py-test/my_filters_001/issues # GitLab issues url (not checked as much): https://gitlab.com/iam-py-test/my_filters_001/-/issues # You need to place this in your HOSTS file for it to work # How to place in your hosts file: # Windows 10: copy the contents of this file, open Notepad as admin, click Open and navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. Open the file named hosts (no file extension), paste the contents of this file and save # Linux and MacOS: copy the contents of this file, open /etc/hosts in a text editer (i.e. nano) as root (for nano, type sudo nano /etc/hosts).
