Metiix Blockade

What Metiix Blockade is

Metiix Blockade is a free network-wide blocking tool for Linux and Windows. It is designed to block unwanted network requests across a network, rather than limiting controls to one application. The Free plan includes network-wide blocking, a custom blocklist, and exceptions for rules that should remain allowed. It also provides lists of blocked queries and relayed queries, giving users visibility into how requests are handled. Tracker blocking is included, along with support for custom filters that let users shape the blocking rules. Filter-list control is described as basic, so the product centers on straightforward list management rather than extensive list administration. Metiix lists the software as cross-platform while naming Linux and Windows as supported platforms. The plan costs nothing, and a free plan is available. Users can access the product through the Metiix Blockade website and choose it when network-level blocking, custom exceptions, tracker blocking, and query lists are the main requirements.

Who it suits

Metiix Blockade suits Linux and Windows users who want network-wide blocking with custom rules and exceptions. It also fits users who need tracker blocking, custom filters, and lists of blocked or relayed queries.
