@BlueyBloke i really hope you didn't host a vpn meant to be used by other people (like a tor node). the whole point of the vpn is to re-route traffic as if you were coming from your home network. your isp has no way of detecting that you're hosting a vpn if you're the only person using it.

Its pretty easy to do actually. I setup my own OpenVPN server on Vultr (but you can do that with any VPS site) and routed my traffic through that. Follow this guide and you can set it up within 10 mins: kzread.info/dash/bejne/e6KZo6mgmJzOgco.html Also download the config file as that I think is the only way to get it working.

​@BlueyBloke Hah lol... Horrible ISP! What type of VPN, OpenVPN, SSTP, IPSec, etc...? They can detect port usage, and if they log traffic they might be able to flag a few VPN types with horrible security. You can always run an OpenVPN server on a non-default port. It doesn't matter if you're the only one logging into it or if you have multiple friends using it as well. An ISP shouldn't flag you for spam or whatever, unless they've clearly stated that you should not be hosting anything. And in that case I'd just find another ISP!

People are now defending ads this is terrible. Have you allowed them to collect your data? Sell your data? Earn money from showing annoying shit. When I was a kid my mom told I loved watching ads on television to make me eat. That was when I was less than 2 years old. My quota of watching ads in this lifetime is fulfilled. Never again. Nowadays the apps force you to watch ads when playing games for some stuff I am ok there but when they ask u for the same for no reason that's wrong. It looks like we are puppets and they force us when the puppeteer handling us says I feel alive mocking in the puppet's voice.

Still works like a charm as of today! There are now over 150k sites blacklisted in the latest database.

Here you go, for all the ads that I have blocked on your video and will continue to block.

quick tip for android users, in the video guide they only populated the top DNS entry with the pi hole, and wiped the second, but for a split second you can see it auto populate with the default 8.8.4.4. This means it won't work as the requests that are blocked by pi hole will then go off to the backup DNS. best to populate both fields with the same address :)

Little bit confused. First, in a techquickie video 6 years ago, you take a stance against AdBlock. In this video, you show us how to set up lan adblock and request that if we use this technique, we should buy some of your merch (presumably to offset the lost revenue from ads). Then, on twitter, you say that adblock == piracy. You also go on to say that buying merch does not offset the lost revenue from blocking ads (ethically). So what is your *actual* stance on adblock? If you support it, why make a video and a tweet saying you're against it? And if you don't, why did you make this video, instructing viewers how to "pirate content" (in your own words)?
