an ad server geolocation tool that works with the pi-hole DNS server.
my-ad-net is a lightweight server that listens to a DNS server's logfile for blacklisted ad server domains and returns geospatial data. Using the pi-hole DNS server as example, my-ad-net reads DNS queries for the ad-related hostnames blocked by pi-hole, and then hits an IP geolocation database with addresses of the blocked domains. Geolocation is done in realtime as pi-hole handles DNS queries before forwarding queries to an external DNS server. Advertisement server location info, as well as some statistics, can be accessed through the server's various GET endpoints.
The server also supplies a visual interactive experience that will display location of all ad queries detected, as well as ongoing statistics, in realtime (as you browse!). This map can be viewed in the browser at the server's address on port 8080.
For realtime ad reporting, my-ad-net should be installed and run on the same instance as the local DNS server.
For example, if you have a local DNS server connected to your router, and its local address is 192.168.1.10, all geospatial ad info can be easily viewed at 192.168.1.10:8080.
