Sceenshot showing youtube premium family plan price increased from SGD17.98 to SGD27.98

Cant believe they are increasing the prices this much in one go, gonna be going back to adblockers.

    ublock is more efficient in the browser than any dns based blocking, as it can (and does) make changes to the website itself

        you have said this

        I’m blocking ads phone-wide

        I wanted to let you know that such a countermeasure is not as effective as confining untrusted parties into a web browser with ublock

          I didn’t say I use DNS based blocking.

              AdGuard installs a small local VPN server on the device and routes traffic through it filtering it as per my settings. It can filter the apps I choose, has the same capabilites as uBlock Origin and more, while uBlock Origin can only filter content within a few select browsers.

                that is basically DNS based filtering. no, it does not have the same capabilities as uBO. Or can it make changes to packets going in and out of the system? I doubt it.
