Perhaps this will help... https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts/pull/2461

That's a pretty aggressive list...

+1, didn't work for me either. There's dozens of us!

Here to say the same. Thought it was borked on mobile, but I'm guessing it's pihole.

Hi! I maintain that list and its variants.

The list is for people who don't want to be tracked by third parties. That's who we serve, and that's why we do what we do.

Based on this...

https://radar.com/pricing

... note the "tracked users" feature, unless I'm missing something, this isn't going to change.

why is radar blocked..

Not familiar with this list, but I'm guessing overly aggressive blocking of location APIs. More on our approach here: https://radar.com/trust

No idea, api.radar.io is on the block list since January 2020.

The commit's comment is "major update from adaway.org"

My guess: https://radar.com/product/geofencing

> Best-in-class accuracy down to 5 meters

> Open-source SDKs with smart presets and customizable tracking options to maximize battery efficiency, responsiveness, and accuracy.

> Add geofencing to your apps with confidence. Visualize and debug every location update and geofence event with Radar’s dashboard.

Looks like this is used to follow the location history of app/website users on a map in the backend.

Their geofencing API seems to advertise tracking users. It seems to provide some kind of metadata storage alongside a geofencing API. My guess is that some websites are tracking their users though this API.

I haven't dug into it much further, but if their API is used for tracking, it should stay on the list.

Edit: looks like they provide a dashboard to follow the location history of any user using their API. Yeah, no, I'm adding this to my personal blacklist just in case.
