I kept reaching for ChatGPT for everything and wanted a blocker with actual teeth, so I built one: a tiny tray app that runs a real local DNS server and makes 500+ AI domains plus the Secure-DNS bypass servers simply not resolve on your whole machine. No willpower, no browser extension to disable in a weak moment. Windows, macOS, and Linux builds, quitting restores your DNS automatically.
Demo video attached. Under the hood: Rust + Tauri, Hickory DNS, suffix-trie blocklist compiled in, NXDOMAIN for anything blocked and upstream forwarding for everything else.
It's $19 one-time, no subscription. Roast my pricing and my landing page, I can take it. And one real question for fellow focus-failures: what would make you actually keep something like this installed past week one?
