List of URLs That Can Be Blocked

Can anyone share URLs that can be blocked using a host file or DNS? If blocked, they remove a device feature.

For example, the URL to block Spotify pictures.

It’d be cool if we can build up a big list of feature blocks via URLs.

Is there an app that could track links?

reqable

Pls post the app

Adaway

Blokada
Can only show domains, though.

Pcapdroid

Even though there are apps to track the URLs I think it would be a big help for people to post specific URLs that they know.

@william asked me a while ago about blocking Google meeting in gmail app

This seems to work using AdGuardHome but should work in the host file too

||meetings.googleapis.com^
||meet.google.com^

Remove the extras if your using hosts.

Bonus, ifw to block tapping the “join meeting” button (and other meet activities. I’m trying to block the whole tab on bottom but haven’t going a way to do so yet)

com.google.android.gm.xml

<rules>
   <activity block="true" log="false">
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.notices.disabledtab.DisabledMeetTabActivity" />
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.notices.failedtojoin.FailedToJoinMeetingActivity" />
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.notices.failedtojoin.GatewayFailedToJoinMeetingActivity" />
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.home.JoinByMeetingCodeActivity" />
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.callui.meetingrecords.MeetingRecordsLanguagePickerActivity" />
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.intents.MeetNotificationGatewayActivity" />
   </activity>
   <broadcast block="true" log="false">
      <component-filter name="com.google.android.gm/com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.notification.incallalerts.lonelymeeting.LonelyMeetingNotificationReceiver_Receiver" />
   </broadcast>
   <service block="true" log="false" />
</rules>

#Update

Got the meeting tab disabled!

It’s this

com.google.android.libraries.communications.conference.ui.largescreen.HomeActivity

I’ll post an ifw xml in a few

Going to make a guide how to use it and a discussion for posting xmls
