It is one of my main uses of Pi-Hole: “never, ever let anything from that domain into my network ever again.” If I accidentally click a link, it doesn’t go anywhere. I use it for quite a few domains that show up in a lot of places, but have proven to be an annoyance. I’m believe Pinterest was one of the first to be added for that reason.
The ad blocking Pi-Hole provides is a nice bonus, too.
- whatshisface 7y agoIt would be cool if this could be extended to automatically clearing those junk sites off Google's results, maybe by querying for a few extra pages, deleting the garbage, and then re-assembling them into fewer pages. Google spam filters would be great, I could also put in a rule to eliminate any page title that starts with a number ("Ten great ways to...").

- blacksmith_tb 7y agoThey did offer the Personal Blocklist extension[1] for Chrome, long ago. But it's been sunsetted, there are some alternatives. 1: https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/new-chrome-extension-block-sites-from.html https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/new-chrome-extension...
- byuu 7y agoI wrote a userscript to do this if you're interested: https://code.byuu.org/google https://code.byuu.org/google It blocks search and image results by pattern, and also removes the URL tracker wrapping wherever possible.
