Researchers at The Citizen Lab have for the first time released technical evidence of sophisticated mercenary spyware being distributed via online advertising.
I saw the domain before you edited it lol. I went to the site and have zero ads on mobile, although I did have an empty placeholder in one spot where the ads would have been.
Make sure the following domains are blocked on your pihole:
If there is a specific url you’d like me to look at, feel free to message me.
Edit to add: even better than the individual domains, to add https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/hagezi/dns-blocklists@latest/adblock/pro.txt as a list and then just include the githack.com domain. Pihole supports adblock syntax, so you’ll be fine with this.
Looks like cdn-statically.io has not yet been added to any of the big block lists I use, but I found it in my DNS logs from today. Good catch! I didn’t find githack.com or revcontent but added them to block, and it looks like pub.network and html-load.cc are on the big blocklists and getting blocked. Thank for the tips.

I did this, and you’re right - no ads. 👍 Thanks a bunch, I’ve saved your comment so if I run into one of these again I may hit you up!
Thanks for taking the time to let me know it worked for you! I like helping people so this made my day!
