Why is the Disconnect trackers list (https://services.disconnect.me/disconnect.json, referenced in https://github.com/disconnectme/disconnect/blob/master/firef...) an encrypted blob?

That seems to go against the OS nature of the project.




Thanks! I was setting up a proxy for devices that can't use Disconnect or Adblock. I thought of adapting the Disconnect list to the proxy's block list, but a cursory reading of the source only showed the URL of the encrypted list.


Cool, ping me if you need help (byoogle everywhere).


Hehe, this makes me chuckle every time.
