Calling it ad blocking undersells it. The ad network is the delivery path in that report, so blocking at DNS is a security layer, not tidiness. The thing I'm building goes a step further: it holds tracker connections open instead of refusing them, so they waste their own time instead of retrying instantly. Has anyone tried tarpitting at home? I'm curious whether it broke smart TVs or apps that phone home hard.
The problem with tarpitting is that apps will try to download the ads before showing you the content, and you will be more annoyed than before
DNS blockers work so why would I need your solution? I dont care if the sites try to reconnect cause the connection wont work nonetheless
