Ghostery's OWNED by an advertising concern. AdBlock's paid off by GOOGLE (& crippled by default too).

I did write an app -> http://start64.com/index.php?o... albeit for Windows users (as I am NOT in the habit of helping "the competition"...)

* However, COULD I "port" it? Absolutely: To Free Pascal + Lazarus, pretty easily too.

APK

P.S. => IF you read the list of 17++ items listed in the download link, you'd SEE how far superior custom hosts are over BOTH Ghostery &/or AdBlock (by many a mile)...

I''ve dealt with that type of CRAP for years (here & elsewhere) & had the same type of shit leveled against me (especially online)

So - How'd I beat it? Facts, & truth. They'll always come out in the wash & DESTROY idiots from "KORPORATE AMERIKA" (not that they care: The "fearless leaders" of those entities are sociopathic lunatics who will not only attack a guy like him, but poison anyone in their way too, ala atrazine).

E.G. #1 of 2: They tried calling some of my work in programs a "virus" & I tore apart Computer Associates for it on the advice of an attorney. They had to down it to "NO THREAT". Their CRONY, this fat crap from country boy land Nebraska, Thor Schmuck, tried the same to me for them... in the end? The FAT SHIT lost, bad.

E.G. #2 of 2 - Same occurred with my "APK Hosts File Engine" in 2012, delaying its release by 4 months (& yes, I pursued it with the assistance of folks in the security community who work for malwarebytes & we got Comodo, McAfee/Intel, Symantec, ClamAV, Avira + others to COMPLETELY RESCIND IT (I told them, right off the bat, I was using an exe compressor in 64-bit they didn't understand, & they stepped my app thru a debugger & I turned up fine, as I said I would).

Same shit goes on here with trolls *trying* to "put down" that application of mine - not a SINGLE ONE has ever disproven my points on it enumerated here in hosts giving users added speed, security, reliiability, & even anonymity -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...

APK

P.S.=> A nice side-effect is that a single line entry added to your hosts file gets you around the BETA (being forced down our throats here, mandatory javascript & all + cookies) -> http://games.slashdot.org/comm... - ... apk

OR are you going to "Run, Forrest: RUN!!!" from this too http://games.slashdot.org/comm... like you ran from my challenge that you validly disprove hosts giving users more speed, security, reliaibility, & even anonymity listed on the download page for my app here -> http://start64.com/index.php?o... ?

* Funny how NOW you admit my hosts technique works... & it makes sense: YOU apparently allow tracking cookies (stupid) + javascript (even stupider, the most abused thing online & a giant more than potential security threat).

APK

P.S.=> Best part of this is simple: CLUE: I was getting redirected (once or twice tops) as others were here for weeks... I have NEVER taken a tracking cookie &/or javascript on this site either, @ least not in oh, 10++ yrs, or so @ least.

Then, I applied hosts the way I stated, & I haven't seen a redirect to "beta" since - explain that.

Also explain HOW I got upward moderated to +4 by others who obviously used my technique & are NOT getting redirected anymore either - go for it... apk

Was thrashing the bigmouth did zero troll here in this exchange http://games.slashdot.org/comm...

* He sure "talks a good game", but offered NO valid easily working solution of his own... altering a cookie? What a fool... how often do you have to do THAT?? Tons of times once it rewrites, and you only have to change hosts, once. He didn't even *think* of that himself... further proof he's nothing more than a "I read it online & am using it myself" by rote moron.

APK

P.S.=> However, & as per my usual? I challenged him to validly technically disprove the 17++ points in favor of custom hosts files that I list here http://start64.com/index.php?o... that give users what they want & need: Better added speed, security, reliability, & even anonymity to an extent... I am going to have a FIELD DAY on that moron IF he has the balls to reply, & if he doesn't? He proves my point for me... he's nothing more than a trolling done zero dolt!

... apk

See subject-line: My solution works to give folks what they want - no more redirects to 'beta'...

* Per my subject-line:

"Guess either you aren't the real apk, or you indeed have the poor technical understanding you seem infamous for." - by fisted (2295862) on Sunday February 09, 2014 @12:48AM (#46200439)

Where's YOUR solution? Answer = You don't HAVE one... period.

APK

P.S.=> As to my 'poor technical understanding'? Well, anytime a BIG talker (but did zero) like you feels like he's up to it, you're MORE THAN WELCOME to validly technically disprove my 17++ points in favor of hosts files giving users more speed, security, reliablity, & even anonymity listed here -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...

Good luck: You'll NEED it (more like a miracle)... & then, we'll SEE who is "technically challenged" you utter trolling moron...apk

APK

P.S.=> Hosts not only block ads (better than "almost all ads blocked by default") but TONS of other online threats, + they yield you more SPEED (block ads & hardcode your fav. sites for faster resoolution AND stopping DNS flawed redirection), SECURITY (vs. kjnown malicious code on sites, adbanners that are poisoned, fastflux & dynamic + normal botnet designs etc.), RELIABILITY (vs. downed or redirect poisoned DNS servers - a HUGE problem out there) & even added anonymity to a degree (vs. DNS request logs + DNSBL override ability locally)... apk

Hosts do more w/ less (1 file) @ a faster level (ring 0) vs redundant browser addons (slowing up slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ OS, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization):

B. ) Hosts add reliability vs. downed or redirected DNS + secure vs. known malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comme... w/ less added "moving parts" complexity + room 4 breakdown,

C. ) Hosts files yield more speed (blocks ads & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote DNS), security (vs. malicious domains serving mal-content + block spam/phish), reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable DNS, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ ISP level + weak vs FastFlux + DynDNS botnets), & anonymity (vs. dns request logs + DNSBL's).

http://start64.com/index.php?o...

(Details of hosts' benefits enumerated in link)

Summary:

---

A. ) Hosts do more than AdBlock ("souled-out" 2 Google/Crippled by default) + Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse", or Request Policy -> http://yro.slashdot.org/commen...

B. ) Hosts add reliability vs. downed or redirected DNS + secure vs. known malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comme... w/ less added "moving parts" complexity + room 4 breakdown,

C. ) Hosts files yield more speed (blocks ads & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote DNS), security (vs. malicious domains serving mal-content + block spam/phish), reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable DNS, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ ISP level + weak vs FastFlux + DynDNS botnets), & anonymity (vs. dns request logs + DNSBL's).

---

Addons are more complex + slowup browsers in message passing (use a few concurrently - you'll see) - Addons slowdown SLOWER usermode browsers layering on MORE: I work w/ what you have in kernelmode, via hosts ( A tightly integrated PART of the IP stack itself )

APK

P.S.=> I.E.-> Blocking out adbanners alone gets you back TONS of speed/bandwidth - up to/on avg. 40% less to download per page per site typically (for online time you PAID for adbanners rob you of no less), & hardcoding in a favorite like netflix.com does even more & makes you more reliable vs. downed DNS or redirected/hacked/cracked ones (faster than calling out to a remote DNS, which IF you use the ISP one, odds are it's STILL unpatched 5++ yrs. later vs. the Kaminsky redirect flaw DNS has)... apk

17 enumerated points here hosts do & adblock can't http://start64.com/index.php?o... which YOU are FREE TO PROVE that Adblock can do for users - since hosts certainly can do those items... & adblock, just plain CAN'T!

* I absolutely KNOW Adblock can't do as much as hosts do, OR as well - period!

(Hey... not only is adblock & even ghostery "souled-out" to advertisers, but they're VASTLY inferior in security/speed/reliablity/anonymity gains hosts files DO give users of them (& adblock doesn't + can't - period)).

---

Lastly?

My app downloads, sorts, & deduplicates data that blocks ALL ads (good & bad), known sites/servers that serve up malware, botnet C&C Servers, rogue DNS servers, & FAR more DAILY (as often as I like manually, automagically every 12 hours if you wish) from 12 reputable & reliable sources in the security community...

Plus - YOU have immediate control over it... do you with"ALMOST ALL ADS BLOCKED"?

Answer = No...

You have to wait on them to patch (useless soon, clarityray will END adblock), & that takes time... & knowledge in regexps, where hosts are an IMMEDIATE + EASY textfile edit, locally.

APK

P.S.=> You can *try* your b.s. ALL DAY LONG, but it's not stopping my facts I put out in favor of custom hosts files, & their overall huge superiority over adblock especially (souled out to advertisers like it is, crippled by default, & WEAK against "clarityray")... apk

Certainly doesn't make it better than hosts (not by longshot - see my last post on that note, OR BETTER STILL, the link to my program for hosts file creation -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...

* When you can PROVE Adblock or Ghostery (advertiser owned or paid off "foxes guarding the henhouse") do MORE than hosts, & better, without being a REDUNDANT slower layer? Then, you can talk!

Since after all: Otherwise, You "eat your words"...

APK

P.S.=> "Almost all ads blocked"? Doesn't hold a candle to hosts nigh ubiquitous versatility in giving users more speed, security, reliability, & even anonymity - period (& you know it, I know it, as does anyone ELSE reading with 1/2 a brain)...

(Details of hosts' benefits enumerated in link)

Summary:

---

A. ) Hosts do more than AdBlock ("souled-out" 2 Google/Crippled by default) + Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse", or Request Policy -> http://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=4127345&cid=44701775

B. ) Hosts add reliability vs. downed or redirected DNS + secure vs. known malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3985079&cid=44310431 w/ less added "moving parts" complexity + room 4 breakdown,

C. ) Hosts files yield more speed (blocks ads & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote DNS), security (vs. malicious domains serving mal-content + block spam/phish), reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable DNS, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ ISP level + weak vs FastFlux + DynDNS botnets), & anonymity (vs. dns request logs + DNSBL's).

---

Addons = more complexity & room for breakdown + slowup browsers in message passing (use a few concurrently & see) - Addons slowdown SLOWER usermode browsers layering on MORE: I work w/ what you have in kernelmode, via hosts ( A tightly integrated PART of the IP stack itself )

APK

P.S.=> Hosts work where adblock will fail when ClarityRay's implemented on a larger scale (only a matter of time when pageviews & $ are the motivators here for sites) & hosts do a lot MORE for added speed, security, reliability, + anonymity even...

"advertisers circumventing adblock which was mentioned yesterday shows a war." - by Billly Gates (198444) on Saturday January 18, 2014 @07:26PM (#46001803)

A.) Hosts can't be stopped by ClarityRay -> http://ask.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=4681541&cid=46003517 but adblock can be. I was the submitter of that article currently ~ 700++ views & growing...

(Adblock's days ARE numbered & it's only a matter of time clarityray gets implemented largescale by websites - Especially when pageviews $ IS their motivator on that account - BANK on it...)

---

B.) Adblock also can't do as much as hosts giving you:

1. - Added speed (speed up favorite sites + adblocking)

2. - Added "layered-security"/"defense-in-depth" (blocking malicious content in ads OR botnet C&C servers + fastflux utilizing botnets recycling/reusing malicious content domains they have)

3. - Added reliability (vs. fastflux & dynamic dns utilizing botnets + downed or redirect poisoned DNS servers)

4. - Added anonymity (to an extent only on the latter vs. DNS request logs).

5. - TOTAL immediate local control of hosts content easily (text edit on simple easily understood line item entries vs. regular expressions work) vs. an addon maker's LAG in doing so!

---

C.) Hosts also don't LIMIT YOU to 1 browser only (or just PC's even - they work on smartphones too) - hosts work on ANY webbound program or Operating System w/ a BSD derived IP stack (unlike browser addons & their messagepassing overheads in slower ring 3/rpl 3/usermode use vs. hosts in kernelmode/ring 0/rpl 0 (much faster)).

Hosts also do more w/ less (1 file) @ a faster level (ring 0) vs redundant browser addons (slowing up slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ OS, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization):

Addons = more complex + slowup browsers in message passing (use a few concurrently & see) - Addons slowdown SLOWER usermode browsers layering on MORE: I work w/ what you have in kernelmode, via hosts ( A tightly integrated PART of the IP stack itself )

APK

P.S.=> Hosts work (multiplatform) on MORE than browsers addons are limited to - hosts work on ANY webbound program (e.g. email programs) & adblock fails when ClarityRay is implemented (only a matter of time) + hosts do MORE (getting back speed paid for ads leech, & add safety vs. not only malicious ads but also botnet C&C servers + redirected DNS servers & more)...

Adblock doesn't block as much malicious content as hosts & is dead per the article (article submitter here): Hosts do more w/ less (1 file) @ a faster level (ring 0) vs redundant browser addons (slowing up slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ OS, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization):
