uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist

★ 5.6k updated 8mo ago

A huge blocklist of manually curated sites that contain AI generated imagery for uBlock Origin & uBlacklist.

A hand-curated list of over 1,000 websites that serve AI-generated images, designed to hide them from Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo image search results via uBlock Origin or uBlacklist.

This is a blocklist, a list of websites to block, that filters out sites containing AI-generated imagery from image search results. When you search for photos on Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo, many results now come from sites filled with machine-made images. This project gives you a curated list of those sites so your browser can hide them from results.

It works through browser extensions. Two are supported: uBlock Origin (available for Firefox, Chrome, and similar browsers on desktop and Android) and uBlacklist (for Chrome, Firefox, iOS, and iPadOS). Once you subscribe to the filter list through either extension, your browser checks incoming search results against it and hides matching sites automatically.

The list covers more than 1,000 websites, all reviewed by hand. The maintainer adds sites manually rather than through automation. uBlock Origin refreshes the list once a day on its own; uBlacklist can be set to refresh every hour for more frequent updates.

Mobile users are covered as well. Android with Firefox supports uBlock Origin using the same filter list. On iPhones and iPads, only Safari can run extensions, so the uBlacklist app from the App Store is the path there.

For home networks, the project also publishes a hosts file format that works with tools like Pi-hole or AdGuard. Those tools run on a small server or router and block the listed sites for every device on the network, not just one browser. There is no software to compile or run; the core deliverable is a plain text file kept current by hand.
