Available Public Wildcard DNS Domains pointing to localhost (127.0.0.1)

The best way to safely and securely use local domains pointing to 127.0.0.1 is to edit your local settings (/etc/hosts) and add your own settings. Keep in mind if you want to use subdomains, you need to enter all variations.

Example:

# Adding bottom of your current file /etc/hosts
################# MY LOCAL DOMAINS
127.0.0.1 local.com admin.local.com
127.0.0.1 domain1.com

Set Icon to a File / Folder on macOS

Since macOS High Sierra sips --addIcon is no longer supported. An easier way to add and image to a file/folder is to use fileicon npm package.

The new syntax is:

fileicon set foo img.png

Here is a script to take the hosts from From http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/ and convert them to rules for Little Snitch.

It has options to grab the entire list or grab new entries past a certain date.

Just grab the output and copy/paste into Little Snitch.

The script is written to block access to any process, any port. You can also delete those lines and it will only block Mail. Or use the options to enter any process, port or protocol you want to block.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.
