Raspberry Pi Ad Blocker

A black hole for ads, hence Pi-hole

Pi-hole

The Pi-hole is a DNS/Web server that will block ads for any device on your network.

Coverage

Featured on MakeUseOf and Lifehacker!

Automated Install

Make sure to set a static IP address before running this!!

On a clean installation of Raspbian, you can run this command to auto-install the Pi-hole. Once installed, configure any device to use the Raspberry Pi as your DNS server and the ads will be blocked.

curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/master/automated%20install/basic-install.sh" | bash

Gravity

The gravity.sh does most of the magic. The script pulls in ad domains from many sources and compiles them into a single list of over 900,000 entries.

How It Works

A technical and detailed description can be found here!

Whitelist and blacklist

You can add a whitelist.txt or blacklist.txt in /etc/pihole/ and the script will apply those files automatically.

Other Operating Systems

This script will work for other UNIX-like systems with some slight modifications. As long as you can install dnsmasq and a Webserver, it should work OK. The automated install only works for a clean install of Raspiban right now since that is how the project originated.
