Hey all, I can’t seem to block ads in Jetpack Joyride on iOS. In using Unbound on Opnsense and I thought I had pretty good coverage - unless iOS uses a different manner to get ads on there?
Google devices (so maybe apple ones as well) sometimes hard code the dns server so you need to redirect dns request to you local unbound instance with a firewall rule.
Apple devices support changing the DNS server through the wifi settings.
Almost every ad platform is moving to have their ad DNS server names into the same mix as content servers. Without packet sniffing they are practically indeterminate.
Current list off the top of my head: YouTube, Netflix, Peacock, Disney, Paramount+.
It’s more costly for them, but 🤷
You have an outdated app that isn’t aware of that. Keep it until they force you to upgrade.
Not sure why you’re downvoted; this is what’s happening.
Don’t believe me? Try blocking ads on IMDB using DNS blacklisting ONLY AND still get the site to load properly.
Guy who posted wants a fix. That’s the downvote.
