I have never seen an ad in the past 6 years. I use android phone, windows PC and Android TV. Keen to hear when was the last time you saw an AD ? (aussie.zone)

I applaud you setting up a pi-hole....

But please bro, you've probably seen hundreds of ads this month if not more. Not everything is listed on the pi hole ad lists.

And not every ad classifies itself as an "ad".

I never said I am using pi-hole. I use nextdns on my router and all open source adblocking apps on my devices. Windows and android are fully debloated.

I was wrong about the pi hole. The other point stands.
