traffic.megaphone.fm

I added 'traffic.megaphone.fm' to my personal whitelist as it was needed for some podcasts to download. The log showed the block as 'traffic.megaphone.fm (blocked adserver.va3.megaphone.cloud)'

Another one to whitelist for podcasts is pdst.fm

@sew3521 Can you mention the host files which blocks these domains?

[sew3521]

Sorry @anudeepND I should have thought about that.

Exact matches for pdst.fm found in:

• https://block.energized.pro/basic/formats/hosts
• https://www.github.developerdan.com/hosts/lists/ads-and-tracking-extended.txt

It looks like traffic.megaphone.fm is not in the blacklist anymore. playlist.megaphone.fm is but I have not ran into any issues with it being blocked.

@sew3521 Thanks for the updates, regarding the pdst.fm I have noticed the blocklist maintainer. And playlist.megaphone.fm is not found in the list, I searched the domain on https://app.energized.pro/ since I'm not using that host file

@anudeepND thanks for the update! I have since removed the https://block.energized.pro/basic/formats/hosts blocklist from my Pi-Holes. It started to cause me headaches and made many websites unusable. Sorry if I caused undue work for you.
