網路層級的廣告和追蹤器阻擋

Network-level ad and tracker blocking refers to the practice of using tools like Pi-hole and AdGuard Home to prevent ads and tracking scripts from being loaded across all devices connected to a home network. Unlike browser extensions, these solutions operate at the DNS level, providing a comprehensive shield against unwanted content.

Pi-hole functions as a DNS server that replaces your router's default DNS settings. By blocking requests to known advertising and tracking domains, it prevents these elements from being downloaded, effectively enhancing your browsing experience on any device connected to the network.

AdGuard Home provides network-wide protection against ads and trackers without requiring additional software on individual devices. It reroutes tracking domains to a 'black hole,' ensuring that all devices in your home benefit from an ad-free experience, while also supporting DNS over HTTPS for added privacy.

Yes, both Pi-hole and AdGuard Home protect all devices connected to your network, including smart TVs, smartphones, and gaming consoles, which often lack support for traditional ad blockers. This makes them effective tools for enhancing privacy across all devices in your home.

Implementing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) with AdGuard Home allows users to encrypt their DNS queries, enhancing privacy and security. This feature enables users to select custom DNS servers, providing greater control over which domains are blocked and ensuring a more private browsing experience even on mobile devices.
