Thank you for this guide, quick question pluck eye was blocking Notion.exe on my computer.
I want to ask how did pluck eye decide that it should block it ? {IE- what was the reason behind it?}

I'm not sure actually. But you can find out the reason by trying pluck verdicts. I suspect it could be due to the default port blocking. You can allow that exe

You probably have the system feature turned on.

Rest of blockers: here

Moderators, please don't move this thread somewhere else, because it doesn't belong to the "Porn Addictitwitteron" sub-forum. It doesn't discuss the science behind porn addiction.

Pluckeye:
*Blocks browsers other than Chromium based browsers as Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, etc.
*IE, Opera, etc will be blocked.
*Works even if you are using a VPN/proxy extension.
*Nearly impossible to bypass. You'll have to wait for a certain amount of time(delay).
-----
Important note:

Your best friend when using pluckeye is this command:
pluck repair

If you get the following errors in your browser while using pluckeye, try pluck repair then restart the browser(not PC) and it should get back to work:
ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE
pluck block early
DNS Probe errors
-----
Getting started:
Download and install pluckeye:
https://www.pluckeye.net/try-it.html

For macOS users.
-
For Big Sur and later versions of macOS, you'll need to follow these steps to be able to enable pluckeye's system feature:
https://docs.pluckeye.net/how-to-install-on-macosx
I highly recommend pluckeye for Big Sur and later versions even if you can't use the system feature.
Plucky's system level hardening is not yet perfect on Big Sur+. You should not notice anything different except if you're really tech savvy. If that's the case and you want the system level to be super hardened just like on windows and Linux, you'll need to disable System Integrity protection on your mac.
This could be done by booting up your mac into recovery mode (Command+R on macs with intel chips or holding the power button on Apple Silicon macs) From there, open Terminal and enter the following command:
csrutil disable
You're done, just restart your mac. You might also want to check out how to password protect MacOS recovery mode (later in this thread)

-For macOS Mojave, High Sierra, Sierra, El Capitan, or older, you'll need to check out the following link as curl stopped working with https sites which means you won't be able to sync pluckeye configurations: (skip if you're on Catalina, or newer)
https://github.com/plujon/mac-curl-recert

Pluckeye blocks all images and videos on your browser by default. If this is your first experience with pluckeye, I suggest you use the following command to clear all pluckeye rules which includes the default rules which block images and also any other rules that you have added:
-From start menu open cmd (Or Terminal if you're on OS X) and type this:

Code:

pluck clear
Now, there are several ways to block porn using pluckeye.

-Online configurations and blocking huge lists of bad sites. (Highly recommended)
1-Create and account on https://u.pluckeye.net

2-Login to u.pluckeye.net (From Chrome browser or Brave and NOT from unsupported browsers)

3-Visit https://u.pluckeye.net/configurations/new

For the type, you have to select general configuration.
For the name, choose something you can recognize, like "dell laptop config", for example.

4- Visit https://u.pluckeye.net/configurations/public
and import the following to "laptop config":

*flee porn hosts - experimental!
*flee porn hosts - experimental!
*Block unsafe search engines (This one blocks all search engines other than google)

The following will block sites which contain porn keywords or the names of famous pornstars, porn producers, channels and studios:
*Porn studios and porn keywords (flee word) (Please, if it blocks any safe site, leave a comment)

*Nuke option for severe porn/internet addicts (optional):
The classic configuration will block all images and videos on all sites and you will have to add rules to allow images and videos on sites that you use. If you decide to import it to your configuration "laptop config", I suggest you leave the pluckeye delay at zero so you could allow the sites that you frequently use without waiting. Then increase the delay after a few days.
*classic

5- Finally, we need to make your PC use "laptop config"
Note that this will replace your current pluckeye configuration and will delete all of the current pluckeye rules.

On u.pluckeye.net , click on your username on the upper right > Profile

-Click on your device>Under "Configuration", click "change" and select "laptop config"

Finally, you need to refresh pluckeye from the command line:
From start menu open cmd (Or Terminal if you're on macOS) and type this:

Code:

pluck sync

Now the blocked list should be imported to your computer. Done!
-Block sites as you browse:

Click on the pluckeye extension in your browser

select action: block
select location: you could block the whole site or this specific page.
select Media Type: Leave empty to block the site. You could select images to block images only. To also block videos repeat by clicking on the pluckeye extension and select videos.

You could also use the command line
*Block all pages on a site:
pluck + block www.howtogeek.com
*Block only a specific page on a site:
https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/6169/use-truecrypt-to-secure-your-data/

*Blocking images and videos on any site:
pluck + block www.howtogeek.com image/
pluck + block www.howtogeek.com video/

-Filtering specific sites and social media (Telegram, Reddit, Twitter,etc) :
*Google images and videos:

-Block google images search:
pluck + flee word tbm=isch
-Block google videos search:
pluck + flee word tbm=vid

(You'll need to add the following rules because this page contains tbm=isch and tbm=vid and therefore will get blocked.
pluck + allow nofap.com
pluck + allow yourbrainrebalanced.com
pluck + allow rebootnation.org
)
There will be some images left when you do a regular google search (not image or video search). Personally, I don't think they could cause issues because the internet is full of similar images. If you want to block them anyway, import this:
*https://u.pluckeye.net/shares/q9cdkftexg

*Facebook:

This one is almost useless, but here it is anyway:
pluck + flee word The term you searched for is sometimes associated with nudity or sexual activity

*Filtering Telegram:

Two steps (It's recommended you use both):
1-Download a filtered Telegram Client like:
1-Cloudveil messenger:
https://www.cloudveil.org/messenger/
(all groups and channels blocked)

2-TelOchat:
https://www.telochat.com/
(all groups and channels blocked)

3-Teleteens:
Only available for Android and iOS. PC/Mac version not available yet.
This one is customizable and lets you allow/block specific users, channels and groups. Recommended.

2)Filtering Telegram Web:

1-Blocking global search on Telegram Web:
pluck block telegram.org selector .im_dialogs_contacts_wrap # hides global results on legacy version W
pluck block telegram.org selector .search-group-contacts # hides global results on K version
pluck block telegram.org selector .search-result # hides global results on Z version

2-Block versions of Telegram web other than the K version while allowing all what is needed:
pluck + block https://web.telegram.org/?legacy=1#
pluck + block web.telegram.im
pluck + block tel.onl
pluck + block xn--r1a.online
pluck + block xn--80affa3aj0al.xn--80asehdb
pluck + block https://web.telegram.org/z/
pluck + block https://webz.telegram.org/
pluck + block https://webk.telegram.org/
pluck + allow telegram.org application/octet-stream
pluck + allow https://web.telegram.org/img

Allowing telegram invite links:
When opening t.me invite links, you'll need to allow the following url to be able to click on "Open in Web" and request access to new chats:
pluck + allow https://web.telegram.org/k/#?tgaddr

3-Block the Telegram Desktop app and other alternatives:
pluck + block t.me selector .tgme_head
pluck + block t.me selector tgme_head_right_btn
pluck + block https://telegram.org/dl
pluck + block https://telegram.org/android
pluck +block https://desktop.telegram.org/
pluck + block osx.telegram.org
pluck + block macos.telegram.org
pluck + block program telegram.exe
pluck + block program telegram
pluck + flee word kotatogram
pluck + flee word telegram alternative
pluck + flee word telegram alternatives
pluck + flee word download telegram
pluck + flee word telegram alternatives

4-Optional: Allowing only the chats you want and blocking the rest.
This means that you will have to wait for a delay to add new chats.
Here is an easy way to grab all of your chats:
1-Download "Export Chrome history" extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...istory/dihloblpkeiddiaojbagoecedbfpifdj?hl=en

2-Open https://web.telegram.org/k/ and click on the first chat in the list.
Then hold the alt button on your keyboard + the down arrow button (option button + down arrow on macs). This will scroll through all your chats. Wait till you reach the end of the list.
3-Click on the "Export Chrome history" extension and Download as Json. Open the downloaded file, copy all of its contents to modify them. The following 2 min video will explain how filter the lines and import them to pluckeye:
https://pinetools.com/filter-lines

4-Important step: After your allowed url list is imported to your main configuration (subject to the delay of the main configuration), enter the following commands to block other chats:
block https://web.telegram.org/ text/html

You'll have to use a URL of any of your allowed chats to access telegram. You could bookmark it.

Now, every time you want to allow a chat add it to your allowed url list, this will keep your main configuration clean and organized.

*Filtering reddit:

A)Blocking NSFW subreddits:
Open this link: https://www.reddit.com/settings/feed
And turn off Adult Content
Then, add this rule which will remove the adult content switch. Note that rules containing the ">" character will require entering them directly by clicking on the pluckeye extension>rule>advanced>free hand or else they will produce errors in cmd/terminal. so enter this directly in the extension
block reddit.com selector #AppRouter-main-content > div > div._1OrNGmpfcSuSebbZM5vYq4 > div._3FVpvZ7OLbS_68QzaxplxT > div:nth-child(3) > div._1oREjd5ToMFah-VfX5Zt1z

Or you could just block the settings page:

Code:

pluck + block https://www.reddit.com/settings/feed pluck + flee word You must be 18+ to view this community pluck + flee word nsfw adult content

Finally, import this:
https://u.pluckeye.net/configurations/33228
B)Filtering reddit search. (optional when needed) :
First, block the old version of reddit:
Pluck + block old.reddit.com

The following selector rules have to be entered directly in the pluckeye extension>rule>advanced>free hand as the contain the ">" character and will produce errors if entered in cmd/terminal.
Block all nsfw subreddits:
flee word nsfw adult content

Block nsfw results from reddit search bar
block reddit.com selector a._2LJ9gkn2k4DlHhF8C1QhF6:has(span._1wzhGvvafQFOWAyA157okr)

Block nsfw posts from reddit search:
block reddit.com selector ._1poyrkZ7g36PawDueRza-J:has(span._3qUPSbrS00ULxlso5V3tIN)

Block nsfw communities and people from reddit search:
block reddit.com selector .ei8_Bq_te0jjwNIqmk8Tw:has(span._3qUPSbrS00ULxlso5V3tIN)

Block nsfw posts while browsing reddit:
block reddit.com selector .rpBJOHq2PR60pnwJlUyP0 > div:has(span._1wzhGvvafQFOWAyA157okr)

Block nsfw posts if accessed from direct links, leaves comments:
block reddit.com selector .uI_hDmU5GSiudtABRz_37 > div:has(span._1wzhGvvafQFOWAyA157okr)

Blocks nsfw posts if accessed from direct links, blocks comments:
block reddit.com selector .uI_hDmU5GSiudtABRz_37:has(span._1wzhGvvafQFOWAyA157okr)

B)Alternatively, you could just block all images and videos on reddit.
If you want to block all images and videos on reddit then select all of the following and paste them in cmd or terminal:

Code:

pluck + block b.thumbs.redditmedia.com pluck + block a.thumbs.redditmedia.com pluck + block external-preview.redd.it pluck + block i.redd.it pluck + block preview.redd.it pluck + block styles.redditmedia.com pluck + block www.redditmedia.com pluck + block v.redd.it pluck + block redgifs.com pluck + block i.redd.it
-Filtering Discord:

We're going to block images and videos on the browser version of discord (https://discord.com/) except for users and channels that we need.
1)Block images & videos on discord.com while allowing avatars, emojis and sounds:

Code:

pluck block discord.com image/ pluck block discord.com video/ pluck block https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ image/ pluck block https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ video/ pluck allow https://cdn.discordapp.com/avatars/ image/ pluck allow https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/ image/ pluck allow https://discord.com/assets/ pluck + flee word This channel contains adult content marked

Block the discord app:

Code:

pluck block program Discord.exe

Allowing specific users, servers & channels using the URL in the address bar:
Examples:
allowing a user:
pluck + allow https://discord.com/channels/@me/8224837635492020542

The following is a URL of a channel within a server.
https://discord.com/channels/332421393800888321/393684969235841025
To allow the entire server with all of its channels, allow the first part of the URL:
pluck + allow https://discord.com/channels/332421393800888321/

To allow only a specific channel, allow all of the URL:
pluck + allow https://discord.com/channels/332421393800888321/393684969235841025

I highly recommend that you bookmark an allowed user or server and use it to access discord. This will fix the problem of discord server images not loading.

-Filtering twitter

*Blocking images and videos on twitter:

Code:

pluck + block pbs.twimg.com pluck + block video.twimg.com

*Blocking twitter search bar

Code:

Blocking these two selectors will disable the search bar (enter them in plucky extension>rule>advanced>free hand: block twitter.com selector .r-1777fci.r-1pi2tsx.r-1wbh5a2.r-16y2uox.css-1dbjc4n block twitter.com selector .r-16y2uox.r-18u37iz.r-1iusvr4.r-1oszu61.css-1dbjc4n These rules will block the search page: pluck block https://twitter.com/search pluck block https://twitter.com/search-advanced pluck block https://twitter.com/i/api/1.1/search
B)Chromium browsers built-in porn blocker:
Restarting your browser is required to take effect.
You could remove the rules by replacing + with -
1- Porn blocker

Code:

pluck + safesites

2- Google safe search

Code:

pluck + safegoogle pluck + safeplease

C)If you want youtube restricted mode, use this:

Code:

pluck + safeyoutube

Remember that youtube restricted mode blocks some safe youtube videos and blocks comments.

Idea from @skaterdrew:
You could block https://www.youtube.com/results
This will prevent you from using youtube search but you could still use google videos tab to search youtube videos. So you could enforce google safe search which will filter the video search while leaving youtube unrestricted.
C) Using pluckeye to enforce cleanbrowsing DNS:
Requires system level (level 2).

****You need to change pluckeye's delay to zero. If it's not set to 0, you'll lose internet access when you block port 53.

Locking a DNS will work on all apps and not just your browser, because pluckeye blocks ports on the system level.

1- Change your Windows DNS server to cleanbrowsing family DNS (185.228.168.168 and 185.228.169.168). How to do it.

2- Open cmd from start menu.

3- Enter the following code:

Code:

pluck + allow 185.228.168.168 pluck + block port 53 pluck + block port 853 pluck + block port 5353 pluck + block port 8443 pluck + nodoh

That's it! If anyone tries changing your DNS to anything other than cleanbrowsing, you'll lose internet access. We haven't locked our setting yet. Keep reading.
C)Block applications from accessing the internet.
Requires system level (level 2).
First you have to get the name of the exe file to block. If you can't find it, you could use task manager and right click the application you want to block and click: go to process. Let's say the process name is Telegram.exe. Now, to block it from accessing the internet, you have to enter that in cmd:

Code:

pluck + block program Telegram.exe

if you typed: telegram.exe, it won't work as it's case sensitive.

You might need to block more than one exe.
D)Enforcing p0rn blocking Chrome extensions using Pluckeye
1-You HAVE TO install the extension that you need first.

2-Find the extensionID from the Chrome store URL. example:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/blocksi-web-filter/pgmjaihnmedpcdkjcgigocogcbffgkbn
3-Use the following command (after you've installed the extension):
pluck + require pgmjaihnmedpcdkjcgigocogcbffgkbn

You could still remove the extension, but if you do so, all webpages will be blocked.

Good extensions that you could try:
Blocksi
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/blocksi-web-filter/pgmjaihnmedpcdkjcgigocogcbffgkbn
This one is very similar to FortiClient. When you enforce it, if fixes a lot of loopholes that could be used to access porn. It works well with all VPN apps. It could filter Youtube videos by category but it blocks all embedded youtube videos so it can't be bypassed.

Web Filter for Chrome
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/web-filter-for-chrome/elebdopnkeckgfhkeeefmpmjjglandmi
This one uses SPIN browser website database to block porn. It blocks all porn and mixed sites automatically, including reddit and twitter. This one is very strict but I had to mention it because it works automatically without any need to set it up.

BlockTube:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/blocktube/bbeaicapbccfllodepmimpkgecanonai

You’ll need to add entries under Video Title to block videos containing specific words. (The following wasn’t written by me, I am just copying and pasting. Thanks for the help)

/.*jackson.*/i
Block/remove Video with jackson in title. Will also match jacksonssm:

/(?=.*hot.*)(?=.*video.*)/i
Will match if both ‘rude’ AND ‘word’ is present in title/channel name in any order.
.* refers to any character/space. /i refers to case-insensitivity (will match both cases).
So it will also match: hhott videoss, video hots, etc.

You could remove .* from the expression if not needed. Example:
/tiktok/i
Block/remove Video with tiktok in title. Will not match tiktoks.

You could block the BlockTube extension page using pluckeye, so you can't change the settings:
pluck + block chrome-extension://bbeaicapbccfllodepmimpkgecanonai/

Nukem:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nukem/kpogandfndblomniegfaeakkjchmiedi/

A great element blocker. Can block elements like Telegram search bar, Twitter search bar, etc.

Update: Pluckeye now has a built-in element blocker.

You could block the chrome store after you've installed all the extensions you need as there are some bad extensions on the store:

Code:

pluck + block chrome.google.com
E)Using flee commands

Flee rules scan and block webpages using keywords.
For example, let's say that you tend to search for a certain "star". Let's call him jackie chan.
So use this command:
pluck + flee word jackie chan

Any page that contain "jackie chan" will be blocked. Try googling his name.

Be creative, you could use it to block downloading bad apps.
example:
pluck + flee word download badapp
pluck + flee word badapp download

Now, you won't be able to download that app. Fleeing the app name directly might block safe pages if the app is popular. You could block the app name without download for unpopular apps:
pluck + flee word appname

Useful flee words that you could use:
pluck + flee word browser download
Pluck + flee word download browser

You could also use flee to block google images and videos completely:
blocking google images tab:
pluck + flee word tbm=isch

blocking google videos tab:
pluck + flee word tbm=vid

You'll need to add the following rules because this page contains tbm=isch and tbm=vid and therefore will get blocked.
pluck + allow nofap.com
pluck + allow yourbrainrebalanced.com
pluck + allow rebootnation.org

F)Blocking elements in a webpage

Plucky supports blocking CSS elements in webpages such as search bars, buttons, certain sections, etc.
Examples:
Blocking Telegram web global search(for k, z, legacy versions):
pluck block telegram.org selector .im_dialogs_contacts_wrap
pluck block telegram.org selector .search-group-contacts
pluck block telegram.org selector .search-result

Blocking elements on youtube.com:
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-rich-grid-renderer # home feed
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-miniplayer # miniplayer
pluck block youtube.com selector #related # related videos sidebar
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-masthead #center # search bar
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-masthead # entire top bar incl. search
pluck block youtube.com selector tp-yt-app-drawer # left side navigation menu
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-mini-guide-renderer # left side menu mini mode
pluck block youtube.com selector ytd-comments # comments section

How to find and block CSS elements
A)Using Chrome devtools.

B)Using SelectorGadget extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/selectorgadget/mhjhnkcfbdhnjickkkdbjoemdmbfginb

Protecting pluckeye settings
Finally, we'll lock pluckeye settings, so you can't change them:

Enable the system level "level 2":
From the command line:
pluck + system

OR

From the browser extension:
*Click on pluckeye extension in top right corner in chrome, click on config and set "system" to "on". You must restart all of your browsers for them to work again.

The system blocks all unsupported browsers automatically. So you're only left with browsers that have the plucky extension installed. It also allows you to block any app (discussed later).

IMPORNTANT: If pluckeye blocks an app that you need. You have to learn how to allow it.
1-Open the app that is being blocked
2-In cmd/terminal, type:
pluck verdicts

This will show the blocking history of pluckeye, use this to get the process name of the blocked app. You will see that apps that are allowed have the word "allow" before their name and that the blocked apps have the word "block" before their name: Screenshot
After you got the name of the blocked process, let's say it's name is Teams.exe, type this in cmd:
pluck + allow program Teams.exe

You could also use the help of task manager to find exes: right click the application that is being blocked and click: go to process. That's the exe that you want to allow. You might want to review the process list for more exes.

To lock your settings you can use delay or expedite functions of pluckeye.
Delay: To change the delay, click the pluckeye extension in your browser.

Start with a zero delay for one or two days till you make sure all your apps are working on the system level, then increase the delay gradually. I personally use a delay of 3 hours, you might need more. It's also recommended that you add someone to approve your rules in emergency situations (discussed below). Also, remember that a long delay doesn't mean you're immune to relapses. Very long delays may even cause you to relapse, in cases when you have to wipe your system.

To change the delay, click the pluckeye extension>config, then set the delay. Or you could use this:
pluck delay 3h #sets the delay to 3 hours

another example:
pluck delay 45m

Let's say your delay is 3 hours and you entered those rules:
pluck + allow good.com
pluck + allow oops.com

The two sites will be allowed after 3 hours. You could cancel the rules before 3 hours pass.
This will cancel all pending rules (the 2 sites):
pluck abort

This will cancel the oops.com rule:
pluck abort oops.com # remove oops.com from future

You could also set the delay for specific changes. It's useful when you want protect certain rules from being removed:
https://docs.pluckeye.net/delay#delay-patterns-advanced
(Thanks! @Infidel.48 )

Expedite: means a friend can approve your requests to change pluckeye settings or allow websites/apps so you don't have to wait for delay to pass. Also, other pluckeye users could approve your requests, if you join a cohort.

If you want to use expedite: You must have an account here (you already created one): https://u.pluckeye.net/login and ask a trusted friend to create an account.

Then Invite your friend to approve your requests: https://u.pluckeye.net/invitations/new

Expedite function could be used in emergency situations when you can't wait for the delay or if you accidentally blocked all internet using pluckeye. This works best if you followed the guide from the beginning and created a configuration on u.pluckeye.net and assigned it to your device.

Let's say you want to allow a site and you can't wait for the delay.

First, you allow the site:
pluck + allow worksite.com

Then, you enter this command to send a request to your friend(s):
pluck expedite

Your friend will have to open u.pluckeye.net >queue > approve the rules

It's not over, yet. You have to refresh pluckeye on your PC.

Using the command line:

Code:

pluck sync

Use expedite only in emergencies or you might end up relapsing.
