    This test is wrong for sure. It doesn’t detect YouTube ads as being blocked despite them never appearing in this browser thanks to ublock origin.

    I also highly doubt that any domain from DoubleClick.com would be allowed through ubo.

      Yeah, I have a quite aggressive pihole and a lot of the domains it says aren’t blocked are 100% blacklisted in pihole (and testing them gives an error message so they are blocked…)

      Mull (Firefox) + uBlock + PiHole.

      YouTube ads are just other YouTube videos that you can watch willingly if you know their ID. The mechanism of serving them might therefore not involve the client connecting to any domains other than www.youtube.com, and it probably doesn’t or it would be very easy to block them otherwise.
