I would use it! (Although I use Tor + Privoxy for most of my web browsing, so I would also need the black list there.) The only downside I see it having to maintain it. Do you know if anyone maintains a list of these hosts somewhere? If yes, we should put the URL as a comment and have a somewhat streamlined process to update the list. If there’s no publicly-maintained list of hosts, I think we won’t go beyond Google, because that would easily become unmaintained, and people would be disappointed to get an incomplete/outdated host list.

Would you like to turn this into a patch? See <https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html> (not everything is applicable here, though.) Note that the manual also needs to be updated; ‘%ads-google-host-aliases’ can be documented just below ‘%facebook-host-aliases’. Thanks, Ludo’.
