You won't be able to block it on a network level either when it's running on a locked-down platform like iOS and using an eventual iteration of TLS that prevents man-in-the-middle inspection. This feels like yet one more step in the direction of "you don't own your computer anymore".
- disiplus 8y agoi was more thinking on DNS level, but with DNS encryption even that falls on it's face.
- ec109685 8y agoDNS encryption is done by the OS, which you control, so you could still null route ad servers.
- jaegerpicker 8y agoexcept iOS has some of the best ad-blocking available, with OS level extensions that are almost impossible to get around. So your point doesn't really make a ton of sense.
- EvanAnderson 8y agoThe OS-level tools won't be able to inspect the websockets-based channel that the browser-in-browser uses to communicate with its back-end. It will all be opaque TLS-encrypted traffic to the OS. The native browser will be hosting a canvas element that will host the UI and running WASM code and that'll be all the OS will see.
