! Title: Hisense / VIDAA DNS Clean TV Blocklist — Extended Annotated Edition
! Format: AdGuard Home / AdGuard DNS blocklist
! Maintainer: ipanalytics
! Purpose: Block advertising, recommendations, telemetry, and optional cloud services used by Hisense / VIDAA TVs.
!
! Syntax:
!   ||example.com^     = block the domain and all of its subdomains.
!   ! ||example.com^   = keep the rule documented in the file, but disabled.
!
! IMPORTANT:
! Hisense does not publicly document the exact purpose of every internal hostname.
! The annotations below are based on endpoint naming, earlier device tests,
! AdGuard Home DNS query logs, and observed VIDAA behavior.
! Where a purpose is not confirmed, the description explicitly says that it is inferred.
!
! 2026 REAL-DEVICE TESTED UPDATE:
! The additional rules marked as observed below were captured from a current-generation
! Hisense / VIDAA television and are intentionally ACTIVE. Comment lines describe them,
! but the actual blocking lines do NOT begin with "!".

!
! =====================================================================
! GROUP 1 — ADVERTISING / IMPRESSIONS / PROMOTIONAL ASSETS
! =====================================================================
!
! This group blocks the most obvious advertising endpoints, campaign assets,
! impression reporting, shopping cards, and other promotional material.
! It normally produces the most visible cleanup of the VIDAA home screen.
!
! A possible side effect is delayed application artwork after startup:
! VIDAA may first render local placeholders, wait for a blocked remote resource,
! and load an alternative cached or fallback icon several seconds later.
!
! ad-cmp: inferred advertising or campaign-management component.
||ad-cmp.hismarttv.com^
!
! ad-imp: inferred advertising-impression reporting endpoint.
||ad-imp.hismarttv.com^

! =====================================================================
!
! This group blocks remote recommendation feeds and discovery services used by VIDAA Home.

! =====================================================================
!
! This group reduces uploads of logs, diagnostics, usage metrics, network state,
! device events, and inferred location or region information.

! =====================================================================
!
! This group contains older regional endpoints retained from the original,
