Sampei.Nihira Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) After many tests on the PC I tried to configure the private DNS with ControlD: https://controld.com/ DNS-over-TLS must be used: p2.freedns.controld.com (Block Malware + Ads) on my Android smartphone https://www.smartphones.how/internet/private-dns-mode-android Do some tests for the ads blocker. In my opinion it's really OK. Edited May 1, 2021 by Sampei.Nihira 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sampei.Nihira Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) Did some tests by changing DNS always with Android Opera, same conditions: ControlD = 100% Quad9 = 69% Adguard = 63% Cloudflare = 65% Cleanbrowsing = 63 % https://d3ward.github.io/toolz/src/adblock.html Edited May 3, 2021 by Sampei.Nihira 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sampei.Nihira Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 I have changed controlD to AdGuard DNS which allows me with my Opera Android browser to block CNAME-cloaked trackers. I believe that for chrome-based browsers only Brave can natively block this type of trackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also would never use brave because of reason(s) that are personal. Also don't trust it. DC Browser and 360 V9 and V11 also still work fine, but sometimes the latter fails when DC will render even loaded videos and my free movie sites . BTW. Its been said not to trust Plex free movies, I still watch but NEVER EVER log it . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
