   I uninstalled AdAway to give this a shot

   AdAway who? Not sure if there is a non root version for Android. I use the Magisk Module to stay "Energized". Wow, it is hands down, easily by a long shot the best adblocker for a rooted android.

• Use uBlock Origin to assist yourself in your glorious endeavors this NNN

  The most obvious thing you can do is to use a custom filter. There are several great filterlists out there but I know most of them are just not enough for some of you degenerates out there who have went a bit too deep in the spicy rabbit hole. One of the best filterlists you can use is by the Energized Protection. Here's the direct link to Energized Porn filter in adblock format. Just copy and paste this in Filter...

• I'm not worried about manifest v3. hblock is way better than most ad blockers because it uses your hosts file to work. In other words, it's not constantly running in the background. Web sites can't detect it and it works any browser. It's worth mentioning the equivalent on Android is AdAway.

  Same concept, but I personally like to use this Https://energized.pro/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Is there an OPNsense plugin or service that can block ads like pi-hole?

  This is what I did as well, I added the Energized.pro Ultimate list URL to the blocklist section of Unbound and it worked like a charm. Source: over 1 year ago

• Wishing someone stole the ads tho!

  Use uBlock Origin instead of uBlock. Why? Because it is the real shit. You do not need another content blocker like adblock with uBlock Origin, just tick the included optional filters in settings and also add custom filters like those from Energized. Also, on your phone, you can simply use Firefox Android with uBlock Origin. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Information Security Best Practices

  Automate everything. Use a password manager, enable automatic updates, use DNS malware filtering at router level (Free with https://quad9.net ). Source: 5 months ago

• Firefox has surpassed Chrome on Speedometer

  Depends on your region and what sites you're using. I live in the middle of nowhere far from civilization, and 1.1.1.1 returns terrible IPs for many sites including google.com (which pings at 350-400 ms if you resolve it through 1.1.1.1, but at 90-100 ms if you're using any other resolver). They do it because they block EDNS0 in order to protect your privacy or something like that. So I use 8.8.8.8 and 9.9.9.9 in... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• 96 ms to a DNS server OK?

  9.9.9.9 is run by Quad9. They’re more privacy oriented, afaik. Source: 10 months ago

  Ask your university support desk? You can also try alternative DNSsuch as https://quad9.net . Source: 11 months ago

• is this dns hijacked?

  Yeah I don't trust ISP DNS, they can see your traffic and dns requests. Using a more privacy dns server like Cloudflare https://1.1.1.1/ or Quad9 https://quad9.net/ are good and free. Source: 11 months ago
