 # Guidelines :bookmark:
 1) Prevent overblocking by utilizing the [law of diminishing returns]() (e.g., using [sane](https://www.privacyguides.org/en/basics/threat-modeling/), quality [blocklists](https://github.com/yokoffing/NextDNS-Config#blocklists-1); allowing most [TLDs](https://github.com/yokoffing/NextDNS-Config#block-top-level-domains-tlds-1-2-3-4-5-); etc.).
 2) Pass the [girlfriend test](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Grandma%20Test) with few exceptions. These deviations are documented throughout the guide.
