* A true list of compromised IPs would list the entire Internet, then on to the fuller range open mouth blabbering of blogs, email, chat rooms, texting, aided and abetted by the world's telecoms, postal services, and, most reliably, bedroom murmurings.
* I do not accept donations, I'm not doing this because I want $$money or hype I'm doing this because I didn't found a proper list on the whole internet and of course I want to share my knowledge for free. I always think that such information should be available for everyone on the world.

Known problems
------------
-* An hosts file is no guarantee, if NSA is already in your system it's just to late.
+* An HOSTS file is no guarantee that if the NSA is already 'in your system/network' - to protect you - it's just to late.
* HOSTS files are no guarantee that NSA or any other attacker/organization could simply bypass it via 0day or other vulnerabilitys on your system/router.
* HOSTS files can't protect against attacks directly in hardware, e.g. if the router is already compromised or comes with backdoors this list will be easily bypassed anyway.
-* Due the complex of the entire file I can't explain every single IP/Domain/PTR record.
-* The hosts file may present an attack vector for malicious software because the file could be modified to redirect the entire traffic e.g. adware or trojans can do this. Ensure that the file was marked as read-only and you're not logged in as adminstrator.
+* Due the complex of the entire file I can't explain every single IP/Domain/PTR record. If somethig was changed, feel free to open a pull request or send me an eMail.
+* The GOSTS file may present an attack vector for malicious software because the file could be modified to redirect the entire traffic e.g. adware/trojans can do this. Ensure that the file was marked as read-only and you're not logged in as adminstrator.
+* Trace-route analysis especially on IPv4 networks are sometimes outdated (due the mass of requests).
* Be careful when blocking IP addresses, as IP addresses change frequently and can block people you don't intend to block.
* **NSA and other agancies can spy on traffic directly from supercomputers like infamous Echelon connected directly to some backbone without revealing any IP. This is an common problem, only strong and proper implemented encryption helps.**
