Hi,
I am very new to having a NAS (Synology 220+) and would like to know if there are any benefits to having ad blocking at the network level via a NAS than the good old-fashioned browser extensions.
I currently have ad-blocking on all my (incl family) devices such as iPhones, Android Phones, Laptops, Desktops, etc. But I was wondering if the network-level ad block would allow them to bypass some anti-ad blockers employed by websites. I believe, even youtube is starting to crack down on these ad blockers now.
And if I do use the NAS for ad blocking, how hard is it to disable the ad blocker for certain websites? Currently, if a site refuses to load with the ad-blocking extension active, I can just disable it and use the website. It probably isn't quite as simple with the NAS version of Ad Blockers.
In short, is there anything to gain from using my NAS for ad blocking? I do not have a TV or any IoT devices in the house that cannot have an ad blocker locally installed.
