Hello pirate community, now that Netflix is ​​going to eliminate the basic ads-free plan, what is the best way to avoid said ads? I don’t think that the DNS blocking will work or will it? It must be some modified app or something like that? I know that the best thing will be to get the content externally through torrents but I want something that is friendly for people who are not tech savvy. Thanks!!

    Other than running a Jellyfin server for them or running Firefox with this extension on the Android TV, maybe a VPN with adblocking capabilities, I don’t have one to recommend though or a maybe a Pi hole. I’m not sure if Adguard DNS will work with that.

      Yeah I want to try it with a Mullvad DNS configured router, so by default the DHCP will assign the DNS to clients, I’m still waiting to get the notification from Netflix about it and go for the ads service and find a way to fuck these bastards.

          Yeah I do that but I need a solution for “dumb” family members…

          Edit: I believe I’m being enough “dumb” asking for help LMAO.
