u45169332.ct.sendgrid.net is not blocked on the Easyprivacy block list.
It is blocked upstream.

https://v.firebog.net/hosts/Easyprivacy.txt is a parsed copy of https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easyprivacy.txt (which was last updated 12 Jan 2025 07:41 UTC), where u45169332.ct.sendgrid.net is not found.

Interestingly, if I check https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easyprivacy.txt, it has 51478 lines, while https://easylist.to/easylist/easyprivacy.txt has 53684 lines. Having said that, u45169332.ct.sendgrid.net still isn't found in the easylist.to list.

I've updated both Easylist and Easyprivacy to point to https://easylist.to/easylist/easylist.txt and https://easylist.to/easylist/easyprivacy.txt, so thanks for that! 🙂

Why are you closing this Issue?

Upstream listings block *.ct.sendgrid.net.
However, this listing only blocks ct.sendgrid.net and does not block *.ct.sendgrid.net.
You need to block *.ct.sendgrid.net as well as upstream.

Do you understand the syntax of an upstream block list?

Why are you closing this Issue?

Upstream listings block *.ct.sendgrid.net. However, this listing only blocks ct.sendgrid.net and does not block *.ct.sendgrid.net. You need to block *.ct.sendgrid.net as well as upstream.

Because what you link to (easyprivacy_general_emailtrackers.txt) is not a part of https://easylist.to/easylist/easyprivacy.txt, which is what I parse to create https://v.firebog.net/hosts/Easyprivacy.txt.

If you provide a seperate https://easylist.to/easylist/*.txt list that contains the content of easyprivacy_general_emailtrackers.txt, I would be happy to add that to the frontpage of firebog.net! 🙂

Also please bear in mind that Pi-hole does not do wildcard blocking via externally updated blocklists. A hosts-formatted list needs to actually contain u45169332.ct.sendgrid.net for it to be blocked, as you can't just add *.ct.sendgrid.net and block all related subdomains.
