After hours and  hours I finally got eblocker running like never before, but only with internal DNS server . 

eblocker test ok no domain

But for my big surprise there is a dependence between the Ad / Tracker blockers of Opera and eblocker whether Opera's are switched off or on.  How is that possible ?

As I compare those  two modes of Opera , Opera blocks more than eblocker ? ? ? 

And on top not all ad's are blocked in eather case. On the top and on the left side of the screen are still Ads.

Nearly exactly results when TOR ist activated ? ? ?  ! ! !

 

eblocker is in pattern mode , would domain blocking improve the results ? 

How can I activate domain blocking.  

Client OS
Browser
eBlocker hardware
Client OS version
Browser version
eBlockerOS version

eBlocker blocks requests on network level. It should show 0 if opera would block all trackers properly. So the higher the number of trackers eBlocker shows the worse the tracker blocker of opera (or other tools) is working. 

My recommendation: stop using other tools as they eradicate the advantages of eBlocker blocking pattern of URLs.

eBlocker is not hiding ads if they are not tracking you (see here).

Tor anonymizes the IP but does not block trackers. I recommend to get a basic understanding of the technologies before you use them... 🤔

No. Pattern blocker is much advanced over domain blocking. Using just domain blocker is a step back. s. https://eblocker.org/docs/domain-pattern-malware-phishing-blocker-what-is-what/ and there is much more in the docs if you want to learn the differences...

THX!

Thx for clarify these issues for me.  I'll follow your advice in the future ! !

Your web information is really very helpful , I know I should read more first

My main problem was finaly to import zertifikates , bcs I had no experience with that. I ' didn't know exactly where to store them in the  system and  different browsers show different masks.

I think it would be very helpful to show some pictures with the different actual browsers

BTW -  I tracert again w TOR ON  . I think  this result is o.k. now ?

tracert w tor

Thank you for your continued support !
