PiHole has an API that can be used to enable and disable the ad blocker.
I have a bunch of home automation set up, and through the use of HomeBridge and a plug-in I have a button in my Apple Home app on my iPhone to enable or disable the ad blocker. Since it's exposed as a smart home thing, you could hook it up to a voice assistant like Siri or Alexa.
I built an integration once for an Elgato StreamDeck.
You can also download apps that do the same thing; I have one called "Pi-Hole Remote" that works great.
Yes, ad blocker blockers are annoying, but they are trivially worked around.
