@larsiu Sammy better be making big money. These ads are literally full-screen on your phone, with no way to minimize them...

I gave you the fix above. 

No one understands what you wrote, nerd.  

Google it.

I wouldn't understand that either.  

Use dns.adguard.com for the replacement dns address.

To change DNS on an iPhone, go to Settings > Wi-Fi, tap the "i" info icon next to your network, select Configure DNS, choose Manual, delete existing servers, and add new ones (e.g., \(8.8.8.8\)

  • Open Settings: Navigate to your iPhone Settings app.
  • Select Wi-Fi: Tap on Wi-Fi and select the "i" icon next to your network.
  • Configure DNS: Scroll down to find Configure DNS and change it to Manual.
  • Add Server: Tap Add Server and enter your new DNS address.
  • Remove Old Servers: Use the red button to delete old DNS entries to avoid conflicts.
  • Save: Tap Save in the top-right corner to apply changes.

 

To set a custom DNS on Android, navigate to Settings > Network & internet > Private DNS, select "Private DNS provider hostname," and enter a provider address like dns.google or one.one.one.one. This method (available Android 9+) encrypts DNS queries (DNS-over-TLS) across both Wi-Fi and mobile data. [1, 2, 3]

  • Settings: Open your phone's Settings app.
  • Network: Go to Network & Internet (or Connections on Samsung).
  • Private DNS: Tap on Private DNS.
  • Hostname: Select Private DNS provider hostname.
  • Enter Provider: Type in a DNS provider hostname, such as:
    • Google: dns.google
    • Cloudflare: one.one.one.one
    • AdGuard: dns.adguard.com

  • Save: Tap Save

Just install some AI agent to fix it for you, dufus. 

And hope it doesn’t delete your phone.

@unclemark 

So using dns.adguard.com is basically routing all internet requests from my phone through their server? And it filters any garbage coming back?

Doesn’t that slow response time?Isn’t that making adguard like big brother?

What dns is default on an iphone. 

Creepy shit.

Simple explanation:

Interesting that the ISP may not not provide encryption by default.
