AdGuard DNS

  • Using a computer level setting
  • Can outright block sites

AdGuard App

  • Block cookies, trackers
  • On a computer level
  • Use case: Can still whitelist sites but block ads within those sites
  • Unfortunately, I can still get on to MHUS by using the AdGuard App DNS
  • Which means it

VPN on:

  • to relocate IP (geolocation)
  • To hide activity (at least on a ISP level)

I noticed when I have AdGuard App on it can override Adguard DNS settings.

Adguard DNS (real cases)

Dropout

  • Figuring out how to save video progress
  • Like I’ll think I’ll fix it and then it doesn’t work again. Maybe different CNS need different DNS settings?
  • Dropout videos progress not really saving on all devcies
  • When I turn off the adguard app but dns is on things seems to be savings progress

MLB

  • Sometimes it doesn’t work

Youtube

  • Some Live stuff doesn’t show (meh)
  • Some videos are actually not showing too (restricted by admin somehow) (idk what’s going on there)

iPhone

  • Lol I could just turn it off
