List Can Be Added to AdAway on Android, but Nodes Won't Get Blocked #12

Hi. I tried converting the .lst file into a .txt file using a Python script I made a few hours ago with all the necessary redirects for use on AdAway.

AdAway is a FOSS DNS manager on Android used primarily for ad-blocking, it can also be used to block any other websites.

While the script has no issues just by reading & running it, AdAway can't pick up on these Tor nodes and thus can't be blocked by the app. I'd like to know if this is something to do with the IP addresses on this repo, my script, or the Android app itself.

You may reproduce the results with the following:

It should display "X Hosts", where X is the sum of all IP addresses blocked using the host source. However, that doesn't get displayed and thus none of the Tor nodes get blocked on my Android phone. And I'd like to know what could be causing it.

FYI I've already filed an issue on the AdAway GitHub repo to also find help from the app developers, too. Looking to find solutions from all sides.

Thanks in advance.
