This might be interesting for people running old computers and by variousreasons do not use corporate web browsers. Of course if you use simple webbrowser like #Dillo, #Links2, #Lynx, #w3m and any other, you may still want to blockconnections with 3rd party sites. If you run #OpenBSD or #NetBSD then you havefew options:(1) Use PiHole, Blocky, Gravastar - but this will not help if you are out ofhome.(2) Use unwind - if you are running OpenBSD.(3) Use hblock or tblock.Hblock and tblock are bash/python scripts which update /etc/hosts file usingblocklists available in the Internet. Hblock depends only on bash, so it willwork after some tweaks even on OS/2. Tblock depends on python and few itsmodules, so on BSDs it needs manual installation, but it is a little moreuser-friendly. Refer to: https://github.com/hectorm/hblock andhttps://codeberg.org/tblock/tblock for more information! Remember: runningtblock in aggresive mode on Atom N210 will drain computing powersenough to block your Internet conenction totally.
