This list must be removed immediately.

CHEF-KOCH's HOSTS Spotify Ad-Filter List is actively blocking the entire .in TLD. This breaks critical Indian services that have nothing to do with Spotify:

• amazon.in
• All Indian government websites (*.gov.in)
• Indian Railways booking system (irctc.co.in)
• Every bank operating in India (*.bank.in — legally mandated)

The source link shown in NextDNS (https://gitlab.com/CHEF-KOCH/cks-filter) has been dead for years. Despite having no working public source, the list continues to update at an unusually high frequency.

This is the same author whose previous list (NSABlocklist) was removed after causing similar problems. This exact issue was already reported in metadata#1471 and has still not been addressed.

There is no justification for keeping a broken, unmaintained list that causes widespread collateral damage to legitimate services.

Action required: Remove CHEF-KOCH's HOSTS Spotify Ad-Filter List from NextDNS immediately and close this issue.
