Yes, easily. What problem did you have using it on a gigabit network? I'm using it for two years now on my gigabit FTTH connection, running in a LXC container on my router. No problems to report.

Agree one selling point of the devices is ease of use, however for someone like me who is equally concerned about privacy, streaming video from my front door is a non-starter. In your scenario, "anyone else who cared to watch" inc

You can run Pi-hole on a VPS and set that as your DNS provider on portable devices, or (depends on ISP and what ports they leave open) run it at home on a fixed IP and allow the traffic through your firewall. It can be done but is not that

Auditability is important, especially given how wildly inaccurate* some of these 'speed detection' machines are. Most of the ones I have seen are pretty close, but some are clearly malfunctioning and would basically generate speed

This happened to me too, and what I learned is that the Omnia uses the Knot DNS resolver, which re-enables itself after updates and this breaks everything if you have made certain customisations. The fix is to disable this with "echo &

It may be more full-featured than you are looking for, but have a look at the Turris Omnia. It is extremely customisable and you can add an internal SSD to run LXC containers on (including one running Pi-hole, which is what I do). Not cheap

A reasonable compromise would be to have some way of determining which apps don't do this prior to installing them, such as a paid app that does not need to rely on ads and proactively declares this in the app description. Google Play
