No detailed explanation of how it works, no FAQ, no source code. Let pi-hole do your DNS? How does that work? How does any of it work? Not that I use or am likely ever to use Chrome, but I *am* keen on eliding crap, bloat & ads from web pages. Doing pretty well with Linux and local hacks but it's tedious and error-prone so the digital Philosophic Mercury would be nice. Not so much if it's a Black Box from the Cloud with a pseudopod inserted into my system. [groups narrowed to comp.misc] -- Mike Spencer Nova Scotia, Canada
