We open-sourced it recently, and now use it already within the Ghostery browser extension and for WhoTracks.me. If you want to contribute, feel free to create an issue or send us a pull request. For instance, if you spot a wrong company description or if you are aware of trackers that we have not covered.

The project can be found here: https://github.com/ghostery/trackerdb
