Bug#771532: Fwd: ITP: dbab - Dnsmasq-Based Ad-Blocking



package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Tong Sun <suntong001@users.sourceforge.net>

*Package Name :  dbab
 Version : 1.1.1
 Upstream Author : Tong Sun <suntong001@users.sourceforge.net>.
*URL : https://github.com/suntong001/dbab
*License : BSD-3-Clause
*Description : dnsmasq-based ad-blocking using pixelserv
 .
 Block accessing to the ad sites from the DNS level. dbab is feather weight,
 both in terms of package size and CPU usage, because no pattern matching or
 string substitution involved. Thus it is super efficient and extremely
 fast.  All ads will be replaced by a 1x1 pixel gif image served locally by
 the tiny pixelserv server. The ad-block list can be periodically downloaded
 from pgl.yoyo.org, with the ability of local tweaking. Speed up mobile
 device browsing without installing anything apps to them.
