even better would be...


echo "# Autogenerated file, do not edit by hand" > /etc/dnsmasq.d/blocked.conf
for DOMAIN in 2o7.net 2mdm.net facebook.com fbcdn.net fbcdn.com facebook.net
   do echo "server=/$DOMAIN/" >> /etc/dnsmasq.d/blocked.conf
done


so dnsmasq will return NXDOMAIN for blocked domains :evilBOFHgrin:
