Probably already known by most of the forum-users, but a first time for me. Topic for info only.

I installed 'AdGuard Home' ( https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome) on my iMac (can be installed on Raspberry Pi as well) and 'told' my FRITZ!Box to look for the DNS-addresses specified by AdGuard Home. IMHO, quite impressive what is offered here as freeware.

Well, make sure not to listen to false prophets just because they look nice. These are the prophets pretending you see the light of privacy by DNS blocking only - where everyone knows this is not sufficient.

Thats the same as adding a fancy looking lock to the front door but leaving back and cellar doors wide open. Sure, a good solution if you want a great looking front door to impress your neighbors but with no real protection against the bad guys.

And also don‘t forget that some „free“ prophets have a (hidden) business model - so their outlook for new followers has a different reason than prophets praying for free just out of passion...

@robfranssen-fr Thanks very much for sharing. Indeed I must say the UI looks quite well  ordered and nice. All functions can be found in eBlocker too - but UI has never beed our biggest talent 😉 (@random you are 100% right, but there‘s no need to be jealous 😉)

Nevertheless, we are currently reviewing the dashboard in the light of the PDFW (Personal Device Firewall). Maybe we can adapt some ideas here... so keep sharing!

Cheers 😄
