    AdGuard

    I’ve used AdGuard Public DNS for quite a while, until I found out it is tied to Russia (Russian developers, attempts to hide that fact). When I looked into alternatives, they don’t have such a strong branding, but they do exist. Smaller, public good DNS services with ad block lists integrated.

    I am using dnsforge.de now.

    Notably, on Android, you can change your DNS settings in the system network settings. While installing an app is more convenient, you don’t need to install an app to change DNS resolution.

    Ads are an economic action, and an invaluable source of funding for a variety of services and technology. Whilst they can be used for evil, they are **neccessarily** evil, and thus are probably covered by the above rule.

    What kind of bootlicker crap is this? Ads are not in any way necessary. It’s the manufactured ideology that they are what’s causing harm to the internet.
