Hosts: Please block these tracking hosts

[RouterCFW]

Okay so I was monitoring network traffic and I found some trackers that haven’t been blocked datarouter.ol.epicgames.com and pipes-prod-glutton.public.aws.demonware.net and also prod.realtimevc.ros.rockstargames.com and prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com

Next time put them in a multi-line code block for readability: https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet

datarouter.ol.epicgames.com 
pipes-prod-glutton.public.aws.demonware.net
prod.realtimevc.ros.rockstargames.com
prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com

Okay thanks

Thanks for the request @cloudyytechie. I'm a little hesitant to add these to the list without some more information first. prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com is pretty obviously a tracking host - but the others are not as clear. I have some question first:

1. How can I reproduce these requests? (what game/app/website is making them?)
2. Have you tried blocking them yet? (you might find out something breaks if they are blocked)

I'm pretty sure blocking datarouter.ol.epicgames.com breaks fortnight. I'm not sure about the others.

I have them all blocked and nothing has broken I’ve had them blocked for a while and the epic games domain collects game analytics information

The games that produce them are gta 5 online call of duty blackops 4 and fortnite

[lightswitch05]

Those are hard for me to validate. Anyone else watching this repo able the verify the blocks do not break anything?

Blocking prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com will crash GTAOnline. For more info, https://gtaforums.com/topic/907162-crashing-after-new-updates/page/2/#comments if I remember correctly, this was mentioned somewhere in the Pi-hole forums too
