BSNL is inserting ads in websites, sending their users to malware sites through malware code injection

good luck in that case.

You can use Public Pihole DNS. It blocks ALL the malicious sites and ADs too. Visit public-pihole.com

I was wondering why no one is mentioning of Pi-hole running on R-pi, docker or VM. Is there any known issues of using Pi-Hole with BSNL FTTH?

Using pihole with doh still getting ads lol

yea its very easy to inject stuff into unencrypted http regardless of encrypted DNS

If anyone's looking for an http site to test, check D-Link forum. Check any posts with links.

I am using adguard dns, and I don't get those ads anymore.

Are the ads from the same website domain? If so, pihole wont block it. Unless say the name is eg adserver.abc.com and pihole caught it with its regex filter. Perhaps some browser plugin like adblock may help in this scenario.

I think doh is for validating that the dns requests and response are not tampered with in between. doh as such would not help in adblocking.

No. Works like a charm (on the one http torrent site i use.)

@dhyaneshwar94 , what latency do you get?

@eriek_halenx latency might be bit more but doesn't make a real world difference, everything is fast as it used to be

The Central Bureau of Investigation on Thursday said that it has filed a case against six private companies for allegedly transmitting pop-ups with bogus warnings to personal computers of certain individuals.

When BSNL does it, it is a feature.
