To implement this kind of lists I would need a higher hardware and more bandwith. I already have an offer for this.

I'm talking about 75 Servers and each one with a 20GBit (it's not a typo - each of the Servers will have a TWENTY GIGABIT OPTICAL FIBER UNLIMITED) connection. All this Servers will be charged incl. Traffic at round about 45.000 EUR per month. That's a special price because I'm former Level3 employee. ;)

This sounds much money but there are a lot of people connected. And this system is required only for the entire filter.

If this system were in action, everything would be away from advertising, spyware, malware, etc., and your internet would be so incredibly fast.

But crowdfunding is also too early for the moment. It's not the technology, I just don't have the money. If I get that at some point, it will be a nightmare for some companies.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Timmmmaaahh!:
You're not getting many complaints from me and my entire family is running on it. I have one nugget but I'll report more on that in a next post. Really, keweon is the best thing that happened to my router and all devices using it since DD-WRT.

I think the problem that many people experience here is the fact that they are not willing to give up some services, despite their privacy violating and ad infested nature. Facebook, to name the prime example of privacy invasion, is not welcome in our household. As far as I care, keweon could block everything related to it but I understand this isn't a popular goal.

I would even dare to say that having a Facebook account and using keweon is contradicting at best. But I'm not here to lecture anyone and I won't argue with any FB addicts as I have experienced this to be pointless. Sorry, I digress.

It's a tough cookie, isn't it? One one hand you're sitting on a gold mine as there really is a market for privacy protection nowadays (that's the whole reason the GDPR was put in place) but on the other hand it's extremely difficult to make keweon profitable without compromising its values. I really hope you crack that cookie one day :)

Whoa there, T! People should always be careful on the net. Even the best filters won't stop the most cunning phishing mail and who knows what else is lurking behind the corner. However, keweon does provide more peace of mind and that's quite comforting.

I adore and respect your sense of transparency and altruism but I really wouldn't mind if there was a subscription option next to the always free keweon. It could be as simple as a donation subscription with no additional features or – here's an idea – a feature like having a custom stop-page when a domain is being blocked. A 'keweon pro' would definitely be something I'd be interested in. I've initiated a symbolic monthly donation of 1 USD for you to get used to it :highfive:

It was on my list which I emailed yesterday.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I fixed it. I'm so sorry.

It was marked for removal, but it was not removed. My mistake... :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 5amar31:
You approve them this fast? That's amazing dude. I thought it'll take a few days after sending that email.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Sending it by mail is the fastest way. I only need to aprove the updates and than it's done.

Unless I'm too stupid to click on "confirm" ;)

Damn!! :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 5amar31:
We are only trying to make this a better system. I have stopped using Facebook 3 years back. We shouldn't even use Amazon now?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Timmmmaaahh!:
Strictly speaking, I guess not. Unless we can fend off the domains with all the tracking/ads and the main page is clean. I know it isn't reasonable to block these major services, I was just making an example and I really hate FB (they've taken my mother hostage :silly:). I personally use Amazon myself on occasion. Heck, I'd be a hypocrite to say we have to block everything that's tracking us as a Google account owner (I do use DuckDuckGo for search though!). It's actually pretty crazy how much domains take advantage of our personal data nowadays...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Doing nothing is not a solution either. This has been clearly demonstrated in recent years.

I think the advertising industry is really convinced that the Internet belongs to them. That's why I fight against any kind of advertising. Privacy? Yes, we ignore it, of course. Responsible advertising? Good point to give all users a big sh*t. And if they do not accept the huge sh*t we'll go to court.

My 7-year-old daughter watched some YouTube children's videos and suddenly a bloody shooter game advertisement appeared. Of course with the warning "only over 18 years". She had nightmares for 3 days. And I'm so damn sure I'm not alone with this problem.

Freedom doesn't mean you're free. Freedom is the permission to fight for your right and freedom without any weapons.

I am not vindictive. I simple forget nothing.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Good thing for Android.

But how do you make it free of ads within XBox, PlayStation, TVApps, IPhone or AppleTV? And this are only a few examples.

That's why I have invented it :D That's the Idea behind keweon. I want to offer a solution which is 110% OS independend.

1. Change your SOHO Router DNS Address

2. Connect to it

3. Taadaaaa - have fun
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Seguraf13:
I just set it up on my router and I have a few questions:

Under the list of dns servers you provide there's two ipv4 running 6.80 and then there's a bunch running a older version underneath. Do I just use the top two or take one from 6.80 as my primary and then use the older one as the backup?

Another question I have in regards to the whitelist, I was running my tests to see if any website is broken and noticed that arstechnica would load but the page would be broken layout wise with the keweondns icon in the favicon. Would submitting to the whitelist resolve the layout issue or is it because of the stuff the site relies on would need whitelisting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Hi & thanks for the info about arstechnica!!!

The DNS Servers are only different at the backend. This is almost only for me when a user is claiming about non working sites. Than I see what's going wrong and why and I don't need to open my documentation to see the difference.

The version 6.8.x has a complete new Server protection build in. For you and all other users it doesn't matters. You only need to find out which one is the fastest. I hope the 176.9.62.x Servers will do the Job. ;)

arstechnica

I was working right now at this website and the problem was that they are using base64 encoded links. Programmers thinks that this is a good protection against Adblocking but this is only half the truth. Indeed it is no protection but it's good that they believe this.

The website is now working and also the videos are running. If you see any additional things on the site than let me know this please.

I will to do the upload as usual and the database is active at 4:00 AM GMT +1. Than your website is working again. Thanks for your great support and let me know when I can help!!!

Have fun & enjoy it!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Info for all Users in Germany

The German Federal Office for Information Security (aka. BSI - Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik) has whitelisted my both Root Servers and the current 176.9.62.58 and 176.9.62.62 Server.

The whitelisting of the both Root Server happened at October 2017 based on my request to the BSI. The public DNS (176.9.x.x) servers were automatically (!) put on the BSI DNS Server whitelist about 4 weeks ago. (1st week of May 2018)

This means the BSI keeps an eye on the keweonDNS project. That makes me real damn proud.

This is a very important step for me if the system is to be licensed by companies. Unfortunately, I have no financial means to get keweon certified by the BSI. That would be awesome if that happens one day.

At this point thanks a lot to the Team of the BSI.

Hello sir. Images are not showing up on quora.com
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Interesting site. ?

Since a few minutes I also have an account.

EDIT:

And I already have found the errors. Working on it and upload is in progress ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Update in progress

A huge update is in progress. I removed round about 30 Million Domains from the blacklist to have better positiv results. The white list requests during the last 8 weeks was below 500.000 and I guess it's time to remove the entire crap within the next few days.

The current white list has now exactly 240.931.589 entires.

The current whitelist database has now a size of 9,464 GB. That's exactly the thing I want to have. A damn huge whitelist database.

The entire filtering is reduced again to Level 6 and I guess at the end you all will have less false/positive results.

Hope you enjoy this and during the next days the entire System will become better and better.

Thanks a lot to all of you!!

https://m.cricbuzz.com shows ads

but if i use browser ad blocking no ads shown

(P.S. http version of this site shows more ads,so https is preffered)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Right now I see no ads. May be this info was a few minutes to early. ?

Round about this time the database reload is scheduled.

Do you also have the keweon Root Ceetificate installed?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NamitNayan:
yes

(i enabled browser ad blocker(brave one)

i use with javascript disabled)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
That's a good idea.

Actually I can't prevent the Javascript crap and for this a additional adblocker is a damn good point.

The big advantage compared to an adblocker is that keweon do not fade out the advertising. Keweon prevent the advertising to download and this will save a lot of traffic.

:good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] J4jks:
Hey just want to know if hosts listed in peerblock are available? Coz I have seen a lot of ips listed in there.

Official peerblock lists need paid version.

Peerblock extreme to get those is here

https://sourceforge.net/projects/peerblock-extreme/
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I know the project. The problem is not to implement this. The problem is my root server has less RAM for it. And it seems you are someone who know that this is possible ;)

I guess I don't need to explain what some guys told me about this. It is technically not possible. That was the comment from all IT specialists of my Investors. It is incredible how many people think they are specialists and in reality the have no clue about anything.

On my Test Server at home I have round about 4.8 Million IP Addresses blacklisted on the DNS and a few much more on my "Firewall".

Btw, it's my own "Firewall" and I have had invented this for only one reason. Make a clean Internet. I have named this a "Privacy-Wall" but no one is interested about this. It is again a "no-market-for-this" product and invention ;)

Sometimes this project is really frustrating me.

Please PM me. Thanks.

Wouldn't implementing AdZHosts be easier as I recommended a few days back? That works pretty well & I have never encountered issue like Quora not opening images or Amazon not loading.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NamitNayan:
it's database is so huge and you want to restrict it.

i also like adzhosts,but these differ
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 5amar31:
More items in blacklist does not equal to better. All I am saying is try AdZHosts & maybe build upon it. For example the front page banners do not open on Amazon Music app (tried on Android & Mac apps) but it does on music.amazon.in . These issue don't exist on AdZHosts.

Edit : I gave it some time to open & it did just now on both the apps. I am just trying to make his work easier since AdZHosts is well maintained & is regularly updated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
It would be much more easier but it will not work.

I know that my solution has sometimes still some problems but on the other hand it's working complete different compared to all Adblocker.

At the moment keweon is far away from a final solution. The most important thing is to have as much as possible feedback a out wrong blocked or false positive.

I'm sorry that this might be frustrating for you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 5amar31:
Nope. Not at all. I love your invention. I was just trying to ease your frustration of constant whitelisting & blacklisting. BTW I was seeing a few video ads on YouTube today. Please check it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Thanks a lot!!!

I know the problem with YouTube.

Please don't forget that I currently working without any Javascript filtering.

That's the big advantage.

The disadvantage is that I can't do it by 100% on DNS. Thanks to Akamai because the IP Adress change almost daily.

At the moment I'm working on a complete different thing to make it 100% free of ads.

I will do this at the current level only for one URL and therefore I take YouTube.

The challenge is not to do it. The challenge is my financial limits. Every new idea will cost additional servers. ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
A typical harmless site

wetter.de - it is incredible what they are doing on website to cheat users.

1. Google reporting

The entire website has 2 different Adblock detection technologies. The first one is based on Google. If they are not able to load a Javascript which grap Informations about you, your location and if this script can't provide a lot of ads than it seems the site will not load a CSS whatever when you are using an Adblocker.

If someone is here around who has experience with Javascript - here it is. Sorry, Javascript is indeed not my language. I must apologize if I'm wrong but here's the script in readable version. It would be a great thing if someone can explain this script. Unfortunately, I can not even read it correctly.

2. Adprovider and Adblock Protection damoh (aka. schneevonmorgen)

My best friends :) I guess no adblock protection around this globe is more expensive than this. Allmost all German public media and television provider are using this Adblock prevention and Advertising provider. And of cause a lot of other sites around the globe. Cool thing, indeed. I love it to remove this thing.

As I have had seen them the first time it has taken round about 2 Month to remove them. Dynamic Server Address, tripple protection, SSL protection, own Certificate, own Infrastructure... Uhhhhh... Damn expensive.

And exactly this is the reason why I fight them so hard. If some sites would spend the money into customer or visitor service instead of advertising and adblock prevention than that would be a better idea at least.

wetter.de using a very old version of damoh Adblock Protection and Advertising Service. I don't care if they would upgrade to a newer version. In the meantime it is nothing more than a few minutes to work. As same as the g00 crap Adblock protection.

Why I'm telling this to you?

Actually I don't know any existing adblocker who is able to remove these kind of advertising. Of cause, except me ;) Give it a try. At the moment the site seems to be broken. Tomorrow at 4:00 AM it's working again and it's free of ANY (!) advertising of cause.

LIMITATIONS (because of limited technical resources):

Enjoy it and may the adfree be with you! :)

Entire Infrastructure reboot at Sunday the 1st of July is required

I need to update all DNS Servers because of a security problem. This has no impact to your System. It only affects my internal infrastructure.

Within a very special way it might happens my DNS Server Resolver will longer answer requests and than it will crash. Manual restart and it's working again. It's not an urgent problem but I need to fix this.

At this point I will also use the chance to increase the Server security.

BETA TEST:

In Germany we have the problem with public hotspots DNS Server change for some reasons is not allowed. You will be forced to use GoogleDNS.

To bypass this stupid restriction I will setup the German DNS Server (IPv4: 104.207.131.11 & IPv6: 2001:19f0:6c01:61f::11) within a way where you can choose keweonDNS Server even when they try to prevent this. I let you know when it's done and I hope that this will work on a real server.

Note: To use this feature you will need the DNS Change App from Frostnerd

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.frostnerd.dnschanger

Reboot note:

The entire reboot should not take longer than 1 Minute. The expected downtime is 30 seconds to 1 Minute 15 Seconds if everything is done within the right way from my site. We will see.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
The entire XYZ, TOP and WIN Domains are complete blocked.

Based on a report of Malwarebytes in 2017 are 98% of all registered Domains Spyware, Malware and other evil crap.

This was the reason why keweonDNS users was protected against the Mining trap of YouTube advertising. They served the script from doubleclick.xyz.

Its better to do a whitelist at this domains than to blacklist.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NamitNayan:
not big issue for me now,do what is convineint for you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I do everything only with security as focus. If someone have a better idea this is always welcome. That's why I'm explaining what I do. It's our system. Not my system. ?

That's the reason why every question is welcome.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
UPDATE:

1.

I prepared the Server to terminate HTTPS IP Addresses successfully. The IP termination will take too much RAM but I will try to implement a "light Version"

2.

I need to upgrade the HTTPS Server (5.189.169.177). This will have no impact for you. I will temporarily change to a different Server. If you are using the IP Address within your HOSTS file there is also no need to change because I will take only one day for this upgrade. The upgrade is in progress and it's planed for the 6th of July.

3.

I have done an Update on the blacklists. I will still need some test and the upload will be tomorrow evening. I removed a lot of false/positive again and also added a lot of new addresses.

Hello,Dev

I recently bought S7 and flashed TW Based ROM 7.0 with Magisk

I installed DnsChanger and input the IP from Singapore and India with IPv4 and IPv6

Is there any fix method that I can do?

What happens if you start it anyway?

Are they working?? Can u use 176.9.62.58 and 176.9.62.62 and check if the same thing happens??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] melphoi:
I used 176.9.62.58 and 176.9.62.62

Some applications work like Play Store, Facebook

And some are not like my online shopping apps, google photos, google go, xda app, samsung browser...they show network connectivity issue, like I'm not connecting to internet

Update : I checked using Termux, but my DNS didnt change according to the registered IP

Should the IP change to 176.9.62/58 in Terminal Emulator if I change via DNS changer?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I can promises to you these things will definitely working. The question is now why it's not working on your device.

Actually I'm in the office. I'll come back to you via PM. Strange thing and I need to think about it. Hmmm...

Anyone here who can confirm that google & facebook is working??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ch4t4r:
Hi. The connectivity check feature I added in 1.16 tries to send a Type A request for my domain (frostnerd.com) to the chosen servers. If there is an error reply or no reply at all after 1 second (1 second is quite long on the internet) the corresponding server is marked as unreachable.

There are some reasons why this happens, some are already mentioned in the dialog;

- your ISP could block you from using different DNS servers. Some do that because their own DNS servers track their users and enforce government blockades. Using a different DNS server would circumvent all that and thus some ISPs only allow their own DNS servers, if you try to use another you won't have an internet connection.

- Your network is to slow; like I said there is a 1 second timeout. If your network is very slow (again, 1 second is about 30-50 the normal time a reply should take) stuff doesn't work propely

- The keweon servers might be blocked entirely by your ISP; I doubt that.

- The magisk module might not work properly with the app

- Your Android OS doesn't implement VPNs correctly; I've had numerous reports in the past where the app isn't working properly (either crashing or by having no internet connection anymore). This isn't my fault then but rather the manufactures. As you seem to have a connection sometimes I doubt this option as well

Termux (or any other app displaying your network cards information) won't show the changed DNS servers. This is because a dummy VPN is used for applying the DNS servers and thus no permanent configuration is done to the system. You can check which servers you are using with a site like this one. Be sure that the app is running - most likely indicated by a key icon in the top most bar.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I have seen to late that you are using the Magisk AND the VPN App. Based on your last result I guess that will not work together for some reasons.

Some guys has build a keweon Plugin for Magisk but I realy have no clue what's the current status.

Here is an example. Might be that this will help or you are asking the Dev from this plugin.

I finally make it work...I guess..:confused:

I include the screenshots about the step that I did

1. I start the Dns with the 172.xx IP

2. I checked with Terminal Emulator, nothing changed

3. I tested open Samsung Browser, and searched XDA site via Google..and the result is something like Timeout

4. I stopped the DNS, and manually register the IP via Terminal Emulator, and rechecked again, this time its change

5. Test opened browser again, and search...it works

The downside is I have to manually re-registered each time I restarted my phone :rolleyes:
