Title: Any good/reliable links for whitelisting search engines?
Post by: fakemoth on January 25, 2023, 09:33:35 am

Hi, can anyone provide a link to some proper maintained IP lists for search engines (separate per search engine) for the purpose of whitelisting? Something like the raw ones from Github, using like 10 already for blocking, that can easily be added as URL ip table in aliases and used on floating?

For the life of me I can't seem to find some decent/recent ones and search engines like purposely hide them :D So what do you guys use?

Thanks!

You haven't really explained your 'use case' for the whitelists. The usual implementation is to have a 'blacklist' of sites that you don't want your LAN users to (inadvertently) access such as advertising, malware, etc., etc. I do that with blacklists on the internal DNS server cluster with the lists from the following site: https://ioc2rpz.net/ - if that's not what you're after then please provide what you're trying to achieve.
