FamilyAds Ignorelist (hosts format)
This is a plain-text hosts-style blocklist you can add to many DNS / network ad-block tools.
Direct file
Use this URL in your tool, or download it manually.
Prefer a stable absolute URL for your blocker? If you host this at
familyads.ignorelist.com, the recommended subscription URL is:
https://familyads.ignorelist.com/lists/familyads-hosts.txt
Setup steps (generic)
Exact menus vary, but most tools follow the same pattern.
-
Open your blocker’s “Blocklists” section
Look for DNS blocklists, adlists, filters, or “custom lists.”
-
Add the subscription URL
Use:
https://familyads.ignorelist.com/lists/familyads-hosts.txt(or your hosted equivalent). -
Update / refresh lists
Your blocker will download the file and start applying it.
-
Test and adjust
If a site breaks, allowlist the affected domain or disable the list temporarily while you diagnose.
