Hey guys.

I want to piss off my free loading racist father in law.

I have access to website blocking on my router. What kind of websites would he go to that I should block. I know in an ideal world run Pihole dns and re reroute. But that’s not feasible at the moment.

This is mean, but I like it...

Be sure to let us know how it goes!

Fox news, twitter, facebook, instagram, truthsocial, 4chan, 8chan, stormfront if thats still a thing

4chan is racist? I always thought it's just gross in many ways and not specific to racism.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Oh my sweet naive child

No more or less then twitter or Facebook, but there's no hidden communities or algorithm creating bubbles.

Stormfront is still a thing! I actually looked it up a while back to see if that cesspool is still going. Found a fascinating post by one user claiming that vegetables and greens (as opposed to meat) make men weak and that brussel sprouts are, in fact, a jewish conspiracy.

I like to think of it as a digital kiddy pen for the dumbest of racists.

Stormfront is the grandpa of nazi racist sites. They've been blaming Jews for everything since way before these modern social media platforms were even imagined!

Nah, leave 4chan. His type generally came cope with the sort of degenerates on there.

I wish this was possible to use on YouTube.

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 month ago

Yeah that’s what I need for my aging father in law. The number of shitty AI based YouTube shorts I’ve had to overhear is crazy.

Hasn't been updated in 3 years?

No forks either.

We need to crowd source this.

Just slow down his connection by a little bit everyday. By blocking all those websites he will probably get suspicious.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Reduce just those sites to Baud speeds.

In the world of Site Reliability Engineering, it's better to fail than to be inconsistent.

So I suggest the opposite here. Start out by resolving the site 75% of the time. Then down to 20%, then 100%. Randomly make it not work with no predictably.

The great thing is if he uses his phone on a cellular network, he can't be sure whether it's because the site is working or because something hinky is going on in his network.

How would one achieve that?

[–] MataVatnik@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Use traffic sniffer to see which websites he's visiting

[–] Zier@fedia.io 0 points 1 month ago
[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

I would run Adguard Home running on some tinyclient, telling him that the sites do not exist.

[–] Nomad@infosec.pub 0 points 1 month ago

Use bettercap for Arp poisoning and Redoute bis traffic via your system. Sniff the dns traffic and record the domains he is resolving. Set them in bettercap to resolve to the IP of a garporn site.
