By default, when `gravity.sh` pulls in lists of domains to block we combine several lists, which are listed in `/etc/pihole/adlists.default`:
```
https://adaway.org/hosts.txt
http://adblock.gjtech.net/?format=unix-hosts
http://hosts-file.net/ad_servers.txt
http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/hostslist/hosts.txt
http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/serverlist.php?
http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/hosts
http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
http://mirror1.malwaredomains.com/files/justdomains
```
There are many block-lists available on the internet, and we have not tried and tested them all, but we have found the above listed to be reliable.
If you wish to remove any of these lists, or add your own on top, then make a copy of `adlists.default` and call it `adlists.list`. This will tell `gravity.sh` to read from `adlists.list` instead of the default list.
To do this, use the following commands:
`cp /etc/pihole/adlists.default /etc/pihole/adlists.default` (to make a copy)
`nano /etc/pihole/adlists.list` (to make changes to `adlists.list`)
