### Blocklists <sup><sup>[1](https://github.com/nextdns/metadata/tree/master/privacy/blocklists)</sup></sup>
|

Blocklists are community generated lists that block ads and [trackers](https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/what-you-should-know-about-web-tracking-and-how-it-affects-your-online-privacy-42935355525/). Filters can be categorized into five tiers of coverage:
|
||||
1) **None**: no breakage; true [set-and-forget](https://glosbe.com/en/en/set-and-forget); NextDNS still protects against known malicious threats (à la [Security settings](https://github.com/yokoffing/NextDNS-Config#security-cop)) but will allow ads and trackers; ideal for router profiles
|
||||
2) **Basic**: rare breakage; prioritizes functionality over blocking; very forgiving to allow features such as in-app rewards
|
||||
3) **Balanced:** minimal breakage; should not interfere with everyday browsing, but may need to allowlist occasionally
|
||||
4) **Strict:** moderate breakage; prioritizes privacy over user experience; will need to build a personal allowlist

5) **Aggressive:** excessive breakage; use on a separate profile to [lockdown single-purpose devices](https://old.reddit.com/r/nextdns/comments/uqap3n/comment/i8q8alf/?context=3)

From my testing and user feedback, **Balanced** is a great tier to use if you're trying DNS-level blocking for the first time.
