    This test is wrong for sure. It doesn’t detect YouTube ads as being blocked despite them never appearing in this browser thanks to ublock origin.

    I also highly doubt that any domain from DoubleClick.com would be allowed through ubo.

      Yeah, I have a quite aggressive pihole and a lot of the domains it says aren’t blocked are 100% blacklisted in pihole (and testing them gives an error message so they are blocked…)

      Mull (Firefox) + uBlock + PiHole.

      YouTube ads are just other YouTube videos that you can watch willingly if you know their ID. The mechanism of serving them might therefore not involve the client connecting to any domains other than www.youtube.com, and it probably doesn’t or it would be very easy to block them otherwise.

    I opened this in Connect’s in app browser and got a whopping 4%. Good reminder to change app settings to use your browser instead of whatever their internal browser is

    I get 90% on both mobile and PC.

    Firefox on PC with UBlock Origin. Fennec on Android with UBlock Origin.

    Both are behind an AdGuard DNS but I think UBlock Origin does most of the heavy lifting here.

    If I turn off the “cosmetic filter” it goes up to 92% 🤷

    Edit:

    Adding the following to “My filters” in UBlock Origin brought it up to 97%

    @@*$redirect-rule

    100% with cosmetic filter disabled

    this test has been known to have problems on Firefox. 90% Firefox+ublock+nextdns, 99% after using the fix they recommend @@*$redirect-rule in your rules.

    Seems to be misreporting (Adguard home + ublock origin + FF). With ublock off I get a higher percentage than with it on (93% vs 91%). It’s reporting things as not blocked while they are clearly blocked (all requests show blocked in inspector)

    96% on /e/OS with the Mull browser with uBlock and Privacy Badger

    92% on /e/ on the tor browser with the same extensions?? that’s weird

    95% - Firefox + Privacy Badger + Ublock Origin + VPN.

    The sites that are “not blocked” are sites I’ve specifically allowed because I use them.

    Testing at 100% w/Firefox + ABP + AdGuard home DNSBL and upstream DNS blocking. Need to get uMatrix back on here.
