Hi.
In the "ads-and-tracking-extended.txt" list, "www.adjust.com" is blocked, even though this is just the website of that service, which is imho not used for tracking (afaik the various subdomains and adj.st are used...)

Hello, thanks for your comments @daberlin. The actual block in the base list is adjust.com - which then gets expanded out into all its various subdomains in the primary extended list. There are certainly subdomains of the adjust.com website that do tracking. Some of which are api.adjust.com, app.adjust.com, trk.adjust.com. Certainly www.adjust.com could be an innocent subdomain. But given that this is an ad and tracking company, and this list is to block advertisers and trackers, then I make no attempt to differentiate between the different domains. Certainly I do not want any TCP connections open to anything related to that company - not even their www website.
