They are actually the best. Managing DNS records has never been so easy. Answered: Nicolas Frichot on June 6, 2023 [Your answer](/discussions/how-good-is-cloudflare-dns/comments/new?remote=true) 0 Question on: DNSFilter [Would you ever consider attempting to take the top most frequently blocked sites/urls across all of your educational institution clients and within the filtering system suggest these in the blacklist portal for policy editing? This could help us all stay on the same page in regards to the popular trends/games the students are into at that time and be a little more proactive for our administration. For example, there was a hit game called surviv.io that was blocked by the gaming policy but could be found at ~10 diff URLs across the web, making it hard to block completely. I'm sure this feature would require a lot but just a wondering for the future :)](/discussions/34820-would-you-ever-consider-attempting-to-take-the-top-most-frequently-blocked-sites-urls-across-all-of-your-educational-institution-clients-and-within-the-filtering-system-suggest-these-in-the-blacklist-portal-for-policy-editing-this-could-help-us-all-) Hi Amy, thanks for your question! We have a feature we call bucket domains planned which will provide a one-click allow or block for a whole set of domains associated with popular services. We've already started to identify the domain lists and are accepting submissions on which platforms we should create buckets for. Please submit your request on our feedback system here: https://dnsfilter.canny.io/feature-requests/p/additional-quick-lists-for-easy-blocking-of-popular-services. In the meantime, you can add the surviv.io clones to your block lists in an attempt to keep the pupils engaged with their learning. I hope this helps! Answered: Serena Raymond on December 21, 2020 You may be better off establishing a known WhiteList to use across the board and take suggestions for URLs to be added to the list. Just MHO.
