Hi,
First many thanks to the great developers of pi-hole!!!!
It seems the madd escalation is a(d)head of us?
Easier just to stay away from the website... but I thought I would mention it here because it might starting po(o)pping up elsewhere in the future...
seems to be using some wordpress based ad blocker blocker and seems to use js to inject its own dns? (WAG)
Any thoughtszZ? Help?
Thx
Frank
P.S. this maybe related? Recommended strategy for clients with hard-coded DNS? - #2 by DanSchaper
I'm not seeing anything other than the usual garbage articles on boingboing. Are there supposed to be ads on that site?
LOL.... the odd article is unique 
but Doctorow is a sci-fi author that I happen to like/read.....
Yes auto-polluted even worse then their articles
But i'm on firefox on fedora 33 using pi-hole on a dietpi vm on get this hyper-v , in Canada...
Hmmm, weird ....
I just upgraded Pihole... Did I miss an option?
Thx x10 (for code and reply)

I'm really sorry but I don't understand what you are trying to say.
Hi,
I'm getting a pageful of ads....
Attached is an image of the ads....
When I look at the source of the web page I can see they are using an add on (ad blocker blocker) package for wordpress which I guess their website is based on...
When I google that I found some software designed to get around ad blockers.... (German software)
I am in north america (Canada)
I also tried Chromium-browser and firefox both show ads......
Fot me pihole is not blocking anything... on boing ...
My/Your debug token is: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/nhw6b8ojes
My DNS is correct and I just tried disabling IPV6 on my system and that didn't help either.....
Help...
Thx
Frank
Running just the default blocklists and one more, I see none of these ads.
Use these tools to help you determine what domains the ads are being served on and if you are blocking them.
Separate note from review of your debug log:
You have a huge number of blacklist and whitelist entries (28,259 on the blacklist, 590 on whitelist). Was this intentional or did you mistakenly add the contents of other files to your blacklist?

Sorry about the false alarm(s)....

Pi-hole 4 is very old and shouldn't be used.
