    Kaspersky blocks access to that file - 'Dangerous URL blocked'. That's funny. :)

    It's possible that kaspersky barfs because the list also contains URLs for hacked sites that spread malware and other dangerous URLs that should be blocked.

    That is what I reckoned as well! It was solved by temporarily disabling Webshield.

    Thanks for that list!

    Nice! I once wrote a similar script for dnsmasq fetching various hosts files. It worked well, but nowadays I prefer to have those lists in uMatrix as it's easier to manage false positives.
