# Why is list "X" not included?

If you find a block list that is included it is because we have gone through these validation steps:
- The blocklist is an amalgamation of other blocklists.
- The blocklist no longer maintained.
- The blocklistd blocks things we do not believe should be blocked (like our own domains).

We periodically make exceptions to the included URLs for the following reasons:
- The upstream lists are broken and include malformed URLs causing the generation to fail.
- The upstream lists block our domains.

# Using Encrypted DNS on Apple Devices

For convenience we have Apple configuration profiles (.mobileconfig) signed for simpler "one-click installation", or MDM management.
