Bye bye ads!

2017-07-01

I was exploring various "Raspberry Pi" projects and stumbled upon " pi-hole ". "Pi-hole" is designed to block ads using your own Linux hardware. Let's say you have a server or a "Raspberry Pi" sitting doing nothing. The installation to supported distributions is easy: curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash After that "pi-hole" is used as a DNS server. It can be used two ways:

  • Assigning "pi-hole" device IP as DNS server in client settings
  • Using "pi-hole" device in the router as a DNS server

And then we say "Bye bye ads!". Below I'm attaching a picture with the stats, they can be reached typing in device ip/admin in your browser.
