It hooks into the domain name (DNS) resolution and returns the loopback address for filtered hosts.

Available for Java enabled devices including Android (with and without VPN)!
See OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter in case you want to run personalDNSfilter on Android in combination with a real remote VPN!
