APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ does whitelists
See subject: Vs. that & personnel from Malwarebytes' hphosts who RECOMMEND & host my program http://hosts-file.net/?s=Downl... actively update vs. that occurring - A LOT!
Those guys (w/ help from Henry Hertz Hobbitt from hostfile.org, this guy is GOOD - really good @ it) more regularly on their end in the data!
Since that beats it to the punch quickly (vs. myself recompiling) in the data imported itself!
See, my filters in my code have gotten BIG (10k lines easily of 30k total in the program fully error trapped) against that, & SO big, that I literally had to write a program to WRITE MY PROGRAM in the filter section, lol!
(Plus, later during rebuilds, I add their new + MY new filters I find OCCASIONALLY that might 'break' say, a site captcha logon (which we've hit before & correct against thus...))
* Nicest part is, hosts are EASILY HAND-EDITED & the data is EASY TO UNDERSTAND, far moreso than adblock regex or DNS rules tables - massively LESS complexity & easy understanding!
(Especially since my program produces a host minus comment bloat & alphabetically sorted, even notepad.exe's edit menu FIND function can edit the hosts file for you vs such offending entires you may not like).

Thanks, & I know - what evidences it for me? Well, easy: Trolls ALWAYS "Run, Forrest: RUN!!!" vs. this FAIR CHALLENGE I put to them to validly technically prove my points on hosts wrong here http://yro.slashdot.org/commen... - they NEVER do validly technically prove that wrong &, lol... I love it!

AdBlock+ = inferior & 'souled-out' vs. hosts
Can adblock+ do 16 things hosts do 4 speed, security, & reliability:
1.) Protect vs. malicious sites (past ads)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop C&C talkback
3.) Protect vs. dynamic dns botnets + stop C&C talkback
4.) Protect vs. DGA botnets + stop C&C talkback
5.) Protect vs. downed DNS (for reliability)
6.) Protect vs. DNS redirect poisoning
7.) Protect vs. trackers
8.) Protect vs. spam
9.) Protect vs. phish
10.) Protect vs. caps
11.) Get you past a dns blocks
12.) Keep you off dns request logs
13.) Speed up surfing by adblocks & hardcoded fav. sites
14.) Work on anything webbound (ie email programs) multiplatform.
15.) Easily controlled data
16.) Do all that & block ads better vs. addons more efficiently in cpu cycles + memory usage* ANSWER ="NO" on ab+ doing it as well or @ ALL + hosts = already on every device natively.
APK
P.S.=> Ab+ does less than hosts & less efficiently - hosts do MORE w/ less + Hosts start w/ the IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN to operate (as 1st resolver).

My program whitelists vs. those
See subject: The guys from Malwarebytes' hphosts who recommend & host my program here http://hosts-file.net/?s=Downl... actively update vs. that a LOT!
Those guys (with help from Henry Hertz Hobbitt from hostfile.org, this guy is GOOD, really good @ it) more regularly on their end in the data!
That's since that beats that to the punch quickly than myself recompiling!
See, my filters in my code?
They have gotten BIG (10k lines easily of 30k total in the program fully error trapped) against that, & SO big, that I literally had to write a program to WRITE MY PROGRAM in the filter section, lol!
(Plus, later during rebuilds, I add their AND MY filters I find OCCASIONALLY that might 'break' say, a site captcha logon (which we've hit before & correct against thus...).
* Nicest part is, hosts are EASILY HAND-EDITED & the data is EASY TO UNDERSTAND, far moreso than adblock regex or DNS rules tables - massively LESS complexity & easy understanding!
(Especially since my program produces a host minus comment bloat & alphabetically sorted, even notepad.exe's edit menu FIND function can edit the hosts file for you vs such offending entires you may not like).

APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ does whitelists
See subject: Vs. that, & guys from Malwarebytes' hphosts who recommend & host my program here http://hosts-file.net/?s=Downl... actively update vs. that occurring A LOT!
Those guys (with help from Henry Hertz Hobbitt from hostfile.org, this guy is GOOD - really good @ it) more regularly on their end in the data!
That's since that beats that to the punch quickly than myself recompiling!
(See, my filters in my code? They have gotten BIG (10k lines easily of 30k total in the program fully error trapped) against that, & SO big, that I literally had to write a program to WRITE MY PROGRAM in the filter section, lol!)
Plus, later during rebuilds, I add their AND MY filters I find OCCASIONALLY that might 'break' say, a site captcha logon (which we've hit before & correct against thus...).
* Nicest part is, hosts are EASILY HAND-EDITED & the data is EASY TO UNDERSTAND, far moreso than adblock regex or DNS rules tables - massively LESS complexity & easy understanding!
(Especially since my program produces a host minus comment bloat & alphabetically sorted, even notepad.exe's edit menu FIND function can edit the hosts file for you vs such offending entires you may not like).

Ublock = inferior & inefficient vs. hosts
Can ublock do 16 things hosts do for speed, security, & reliability:
1.) Protect vs. malicious sites (past ads)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop C&C communique
3.) Protect vs. dyndns botnets + stop C&C communique
4.) Protect vs. DGA botnets + stop C&C communique
5.) Protect vs. downed DNS (4 reliability)
6.) Protect vs. redirect poisoned dns
7.) Protect vs. trackers
8.) Protect vs. spam
9.) Protect vs. phishing
10.) Protect vs. caps
11.) Get you by dns blocking
12.) Keep you off dns request logs
13.) Speed up surfing by adblocks & hardcoded favs
14.) Work on anything webbound (ie email programs) multiplatform.
15.) Give you easily controlled data
16.) Do those & block ads better than addons more efficiently in cpu + memory use* ANSWER ="NO" to each on UBlock doing it as well or @ all!
APK
P.S.=> UBlock does less than hosts & less efficiently - hosts do MORE w/ less + Hosts start w/ the IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN to operate (as 1st resolver queried):
Ublock's NOT as efficient:
Hosts @ 3mb-11mb w/ current data vs. threats + ads - test yourself using my program.
UBlock uses 63++ MB -> http://www.ghacks.net/2014/06/...

ClarityRay defeats it detecting it by dumping addons in use in a browser via native browser methods to do so!

My program whitelists vs. those
See subject: The guys from Malwarebytes' hphosts who recommend & host my program here http://hosts-file.net/?s=Downl... actively update vs. that occurring A LOT!
Those guys (with help from Henry Hertz Hobbitt from hostfile.org, this guy is GOOD, really good @ it) more regularly on their end in the data!
That's since that beats that to the punch quickly than myself recompiling!
(See, my filters in my code? They have gotten BIG (10k lines easily of 30k total in the program fully error trapped) against that, & SO big, that I literally had to write a program to WRITE MY PROGRAM in the filter section, lol!
Plus, later during rebuilds, I add their AND MY filters I find OCCASIONALLY that might 'break' say, a site captcha logon (which we've hit before & correct against thus...).
* Nicest part is, hosts are EASILY HAND-EDITED & the data is EASY TO UNDERSTAND, far moreso than adblock regex or DNS rules tables - massively LESS complexity & easy understanding!
(Especially since my program produces a host minus comment bloat & alphabetically sorted, even notepad.exe's edit menu FIND function can edit the hosts file for you vs such offending entires you may not like).

Thanks, & I know - what evidences it for me? Well, easy: Trolls ALWAYS "Run, Forrest: RUN!!!" vs. this FAIR CHALLENGE I put to them to validly technically prove my points on hosts wrong here http://yro.slashdot.org/commen... - they NEVER do, lol... I love it!

LOL: You can't prove me wrong & downmod
See subject, says it all for me. Especially you fools doing a "Run, Forrest: RUN!!!" vs. my fair challenge to "your kind" http://yro.slashdot.org/commen... in technically WEAK trolls - I say that since NONE OF YOU ever, EVER, validly technically proves what I state on hosts giving users more speed, security, reliability, & anonymity than ANY single browser addon there is, + hosts do so (and FAR MORE than INFERIOR browser addons) FAR MORE EFFICIENTLY!
* What I absolutely LOVE is CRUSHING FOOLS LIKE YOU (like I have before in YOU SPECIFICALLY, "forrest" -> http://slashdot.org/comments.p... )

P.S.=> You're additionally welcome to write a BETTER program (but then again, YOU ARE A "ne'er-do-well" unskilled in the computer sciences mere TROLLING WORM, lol...
