Is there a way to block adclick.g.doubleclick.net ads??
Dont need to if your still using the default adlist that came with the installation:
pi@ph5b:~ $ pihole -q adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Match found in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts:
adclick.g.doubleclick.net
That domain will resolve to IPv4 0.0.0.0
and IPv6 ::
for your network clients if they are configured to solely use Pi-hole for DNS.
For my Windows PC, that would give below results in a command prompt:
C:\>nslookup adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Server: ph5a.home.dehakkelaar.nl
Address: 10.0.0.2
Name: adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Addresses: ::
0.0.0.0
C:\>netsh interface ip show dnsservers
Configuration for interface "Local Area Connection"
DNS servers configured through DHCP: 10.0.0.2
[..]
* 10.0.0.2
is my Pi-hole setup.
On my Debian laptop client, results are similar:
dehakkelaar@laptop:~$ nslookup adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Server: 10.0.0.2
Address: 10.0.0.2#53
Name: adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Address: 0.0.0.0
Name: adclick.g.doubleclick.net
Address: ::
dehakkelaar@laptop:~$ nmcli
[..]
DNS configuration:
servers: 10.0.0.2
