@lka1988 We focus our effort on the base OS and areas which are not already covered by high quality open source apps. We don’t need to build our own domain-based filtering and blocklists for it because they already exist.
We have built-in content filtering in Vanadium based on EasyList + EasyPrivacy. That’s more usable (per-site toggle) and much less limited than what domain-based filtering can do but it’s still limited by needing to permit dual use functionality and is still easily bypassed.

> Plus, in the first comment, you suggested “RethinkDNS”, which depends on their own DNS servers.
You do not need to use their DNS servers. You can use local filtering and your choice of DNS servers including the network provided ones.
> I wouldn’t think a security and privacy-focused ROM should be recommending anything but a locally hosted option.
We’re recommending using local filtering via RethinkDNS, not the RethinkDNS servers. They allow downloading the blocklists locally.
