pi-hole: Xbox; Ads on Youtube
-
This one I may not be able to do anything about, but sitting here watching the kid flip between Minecraft and Youtube, I see that he is getting ads on Youtube, even with the pi-hole running.
I need to review the event logs, but - is anyone running;
- pi-hole
- xBox One

Pi-hole won't block youtube ads, at least not the in-video ads. You need youtube premium to get rid of them, no way to block those I'm afraid.

Noted - I don't get ads on the PC(s), likely due to different adblocker there.
and well - dang.

How are they being blocked on the PC... something other than blacklists/DNS not resolve...

My default had been to install adblocker when building a PC,.. so it's likely still running even with the pi-hole running.

Right, but how do most of those work? as far as I know they work by blocking DNS queries
