Food for thought: For tracking protection Peter Low's list is more than enough, here is why ....

While not wanting to appear to be idiot of the week, I have forgotten how to add for example 'Hagezi' to ublock as on there use only used the filters available :unsure::unsure::unsure:
Your phrase "idiot of the week" reminded me of when a member once asked about "userscripts" and my answer was "Chris Titus Tech's Windows Utility". I'd never used userscripts before, so I didn't really understand what he was asking about 😅
 
Code:

Which is the reason @Kees1958 created his list. He advises U.S. or North American residents to use Peter Lowe, and those in the EU and elsewhere use his list.
GitHub - Kees1958/W3C_annual_most_used_survey_blocklist: This blocklist is based on published surveys of most used advertising and tracking technology
Changed to Kees1958 and I am not noticing a difference with my surfing habits (only Kees1958 list is half of than Peter Low's). In LibreOffice Calc, it is very easy to check the differences by not removing duplicates but selecting them. The shared tracker blocks with EasyList (3P-trackers sublist) and AdGuard (tracking servers sublist) is 2 times as much as with Peter Low's. Not noticing any differences (new list shares only a fourth with the blocklist I used previously) is probably because I use to visit maximum 20 websites reguraly for surfing.
