I've used Pihole for so long.. I bought the original pi as a curiosity but Pihole was best use of it.

Here is the problem though, which i assume applies to all adblockers: everything is now "sponsored links". Google, Amazon, etc. They are of course blocked which is getting really frustrating.

So what do we do now? Is there a way to just send fake telemetry? Saw VLANs mentioned. Is that the way? I'm getting older and life gets busier and it's harder for me to keep up on this.

Privacy Badger, if you want to try to reduce your tracking data.

Privacy Possum, if you want to send bullshit tracking data to cost companies money.

What's the difference between Possum and Adnauseum?

I get around it by using an alternative search engine such as searxng.
