so - I have this show up.. since my system is open.

Should they be blacklisted? or allowed?

That's not what that blacklist means. I am assuming those IP addresses are not yours.

They are not. And you are right. In this case, not blacklist.. FW maybe..

Correct. If that is what you want, then you need to look at restricting access to the Pi-Hole instance in the first place.

There is a thread on that here somewhere. But That is more work than it is worth IMO.

What I would do is setup the Vultr Firewall and add an allow for your network. Use ARIN to look up the range your ISP uses. Then add a drop all for all other traffic on port 53.

If you expand this to family, add their IP block as well.

Not 100% solid, but much less likely to be randomly hit.

That thread. Don’t do it, as it is too much of a pain in the ass.

Just whitelist the CIDR of your ISP.

Where is @scottalanmiller to chime in that isn't the purpose of DNS?

Careful, sounds like he's already infected you!

Yes but I can't yell at people as good as him.
