Banish the Kardashians from the web

If you're reading sites that report on the Kardashians, you're better off just not going to that site. That's mostly worked for me, until now.

What is the false-positive rate like? It would be terrible if it blocked people like Garak and Dukat.<p>Just a note: the &quot;How does K-blocker work?&quot; link just goes back to features, instead of actually telling how it works.

I loathe the day where such apps isolate people from thought they do not like on a wholesale business. Can you imagine a world of safe spaces and such where you never have to be challenged? It would be like exporting the current college culture to the world and that if not a true dystopian future, one where the thought police exist through intimidation and threat is still one I don&#x27;t want.

Possibly the greatest use of iOSs new web filtering API. Excellent work.

And now I&#x27;m reading about them even on HN...

Herold of a dystopian future where individuals isolate themselves, and become increasingly radical in a bubble formed by their personal bias. Is there anything I can use to block Republicans? :-)

Jeer if you must, but here&#x27;s an iOS app that any of us could have written, yet will make several house payments&#x27; worth by week&#x27;s end.

I wonder what FB and Google think about this filtering API. If one day Apple blocks all ads by default, it would be very interesting.

I&#x27;ve always wanted Google to provide a BlackHole option on all their products. Every person, organization, subject on my black hole list would never appear in any search results, or News articles... I would BlackHole the Kardashians, Chris Brown and many others.

&gt;Less Kardashian spam makes your battery last longer<p>IMO filtering will use extra processing power which will infact increase battery consumption.

Who are Kardashians? Googling gives me result about some obscure photo model. Is she leader of some clickbait company?

Why would I have to know about that?

I downloaded the app, so shouldn&#x27;t it block this post?
