TLDs

I have tried several times to block 99% of TLDs, but I always regret it, because some apps stop working, and it's a pitb trying to figure out what domain a particular app is using... What TLDs should ALWAYS be blocked? I always have .su, .ru. & .cn blocked, but what other domains do you all block? I only have a handful blocked currently. Screenshot attached.

      Calvin Hobbes Same here, on Windows I have allowed only .com and .net then a few domains on an allowlist. Similar to my browser, there are a few more domains .org .io

      Calvin Hobbes same here. I really don't mind to manage a whitelist anyway. 

      I found out it is less work to whitelist than to blacklist.

    With a quick search on the web you will find which TLD to block.

    I would personally avoid going too heavy on the blocklists, as you said it becomes a pain to manage and troubleshoot things.

    You should block the ones you're comfortable with, the ones that don't pose issues.

    For everything else the blacklists/nrd/threat-intelligence/ai should do the trick
