I add this to my modem/wifi ap. and then just let every device use it to resolve. if the device allows to set a hostfile, I also add a local copy for when iam not in my network.

You can optionally invoke extensions to block additional sites by category. || https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Direct link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/h... Also, I think OpenDNS blocks ads too. Haven't tried it in a few years though. * Home Internet Security | OpenDNS || https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/ https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/
- decasteve 10y agoI take the hosts file approach to blocking on my VPN/DNS/Proxy servers. I also add most Google/Facebook/etc domains to cut down on tracking and bandwidth from remote resources. Somehow the tentacles of Google (Analytics/Fonts/etc) and Facebook extend to most of the web. Their embedded javascript is everywhere. Blocking at the hosts file level seems to be the easiest and most convenient approach.
