Adding a blocklist to Hosts file

Linux / macOS

curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mtxadmin/ublock/master/hosts.txt" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts > /dev/null

Windows (PowerShell as administrator)

Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mtxadmin/ublock/master/hosts.txt" -OutFile "$env:TEMPhosts.txt"
Add-Content -Path "$env:SystemRootSystem32driversetchosts" -Value (Get-Content "$env:TEMPhosts.txt")

Very large hosts files can slow down DNS resolution on some systems. Prefer a DNS-based blocker like Pi-hole or AdGuard Home for lists with more than ~100k entries.

The address shown above is an example. Every list in the directory has its own URL, which you can copy with one click.
