🇬🇧 Pi-hole, Unbound & Hyperlocal: No Advertising - Maximum Independence
1. introduction
The Internet is decentralized - at least that's what I want. Many small networked units and you can get something anywhere, depending on what you need. But we are increasingly struggling with ever larger, central entities with dominating and monopolistic positions. They accumulate more and more data, which can be very dangerous to say the least. On the Kuketz blog and in the Kuketz forum there is already a lot of information on how to protect yourself against this. One possibility is to use a trustworthy name server or DNS server. This is a first step, but it still remains a sore point.
All places that we contact on the Internet (websites, e-mail, online games, etc.) only get to see a small summary of us. The name server, however, receives every contact request we send to the Internet (apart from Tor) - from a trustworthy operator or not. In the following, we want to get rid of this central place and make ourselves a bit freer and the Internet a bit more decentralized.
🇩🇪 Pi-hole, Unbound & Hyperlocal: Keine Werbung – Größtmögliche Unabhängigkeit
1. Einführung
Das Internet ist dezentral – zumindest wünsche ich mir das. Viele kleine vernetzte Einheiten und man kann sich überall etwas holen, je nachdem, was man gerade braucht. Doch wir haben zunehmend mit immer größer werdenden, zentralen Entitäten mit Vormacht- und Monopolstellung zu kämpfen. Diese kumulieren immer mehr Daten, was gelinde gesagt sehr gefährlich werden kann. Auf dem Kuketz-Blog und im Kuketz-Forum gibt es schon viele Informationen dazu, wie man sich dagegen schützen kann. Eine Möglichkeit ist, einen vertrauenswürdigen Nameserver oder DNS-Server zu verwenden. Das ist ein erster Schritt, jedoch bleibt es weiterhin ein wunder Punkt.
Alle Stellen, die wir im Internet kontaktieren (Webseiten, E-Mail, Online-Spiele etc.), bekommen immer nur einen kleineren Abriss von uns zu sehen. Der Nameserver jedoch bekommt jegliche Kontaktanfrage mit, die wir ins Internet absetzen (mal von Tor abgesehen) – vertrauenswürdiger Betreiber hin oder her. Wir wollen uns im Folgenden nun auch dieser zentralen Stelle entledigen und uns ein Stück freier und das Internet ein Stück dezentraler machen.

Dropkick Google with Pi-Hole On Your Network

Greetings fellow De-Googlers. Today, as we crest over the 20k mark in membership, I’d like to talk about a tool you can use in your fight against intrusive corporations like Google. I’m talking about a great project called Pi-Hole. Some of you may be familiar with Pi-Hole, while to others this may be new information. If it’s new information, I’m happy to report there is a sub right here on Reddit just for Pi-Hole ( r/pihole ). The mods there are very helpful with any problems you may encounter along the way with this project.
Before I go any further, I’d like to point out that Pi-Hole is open source software, available for free on their website at https://pi-hole.net/. However, I would like to encourage users to donate to this worthy cause and become a Patron of the project.
In a nutshell, Pi-Hole is a Raspberry PI project that acts as an ad blocker. Unlike browser based ad blockers that you may be used to such as uBlockOrigin, Pi-Hole works at the DNS level.
You can run Pi-Hole in a Docker container, deploy directly in conjunction with Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi Zero W, or deploy in conjunction with Centos, Fedora, or Debian or an old desktop running Ubuntu. There are even some folks running Pi-Hole on an old laptop. For all the features of Pi-hole and for what it does, it doesn’t require a lot of overhead to run.
I won’t go into recreating the installation procedures, but I can tell you that with limited tech savvy, anyone can have this set up and running in an afternoon.
So how does this all tie into De-Googling I hear you ask. One of the great features of Pi-Hole is it’s ability to use custom block lists. These block lists contain hundreds of domain names that you don’t want accessing your network. Here is one such list that completely blocks Google and it’s many domains from your network:
• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nickspaargaren/pihole-google/master/pihole-google.txt
Nick Spaargaren maintains this list and his GitHub is located at:
• https://github.com/nickspaargaren/pihole-google
If we were to take a peek inside this particular block list, we can see all the domains it will block from your network:
www.googleanalytics.com
click.googleanalytics.com
ssl.googleanalytics.com
www.google-analytics.com
cctldtest.google-analytics.com
click.google-analytics.com
…..and hundreds more! With a couple clicks of the mouse, you can just about eradicate Google from your network as if it didn’t exist. There are tons of other lists that are available for Pi-Hole that will block all manner of things from your network. For now we are concentrating on the Google aspect.
In closing, I will leave you guys with some links to get you started on your way to a Google free, intrusion free network using Pi-Hole.
