False Positives in Parental Control for Piracy

There are two sites that are blocked on piracy grounds but that are not used to distribute pirated content, at least not primarily.

  • greasyfork.org distributes javascript for use in browser extensions like Tampermonkey and Violentmonkey. It, as far as I can tell, doesn't distribute pirated content. This site also is not part of HaGeZi's Anti-Piracy DNS Blocklist.
  • anime-planet.com is a database used for cataloguing and rating anime you've watched. It sometimes links to external content on YouTube, and sometimes allows you to read the first few chapters of manga via what seems to be an agreement with the publisher. This one is part of HaGeZi's list but I believe it is a false positive still.

I have both these sites exempted from the filter, but they still warrant removal from the list in general.
