I was using the API to track what the last_activity field was and thus to know if a client was actually connect to controld, but at some point - I think around yesterday some point, the field has been removed from the API output.

It would be awesome to have a new folder that syncs across profiles.
The idea is simple:
Any domain added to a Sync Folder automatically appears in that same folder in every profile or in selected profiles if you add a checkbox for that.

It would be nice if ControlD added hagezi's most abused TLDs blocklist as an official third-party filter.
Right now I can block every TLD manually, but maintaining hundreds of entries myself is a pain and creates a ton of false-positive work whenever hagezi updates his list.

I would love to see a built-in phishing domain hunter in ControlD, something like dnstwist but directly integrated.
It could automatically scan for newly registered typosquats, homographs, bitsquats and block them

I understand why some features are limited to organizations, but this one would be especially helpful for parents who use the service as a filter for their kids. Having a daily report of what their children attempted to access, both allowed and blocked, would make monitoring much easier.

Hi, is there a way to install the GUI Setup Utility via Homebrew (brew.sh) on Mac? It would greatly help for initial installation when I setup laptops

For those of us wanting to block pornography, Reddit is a problem. Reddit is a very useful site for many purposes, but there is also a lot of pornography there making it easy to circumvent the Adult Content filter. Luckily I think Reddit uses different domains for all the thumbnails, images, and video that it hosts from user submissions. So I would like to be able to allow visiting Reddit without user submitted media (text only).

I am a longtime cybersecurity pro. I recommend ControlD to all of my clients. Some have teams of DNS experts, others have small tech teams. The smaller clients tell me that they sometimes struggle using ControlD. A website that is mischaracterized. Websites that have unexpected connections. Occasional slow responses. And more.

I like the Dashboard 2.0 but im still missing an option to filter logs in Activity log for custom rules.
