Description

DNS queries can be filtered locally or on a network to block advertising and tracking domains before apps connect to them. It is useful for administrators and advanced users who want lightweight DNS-based ad blocking.

DNS filtering affects every client that uses the proxy. Review blocklists carefully, keep a fallback resolver, and expect some sites or apps to break when domains are blocked.
