I am using a pi-hole DNS server on my network to block all ads and it works pretty well. I just installed Brave and it doesn’t block ads on Brave. There are really annoying ads showing up on http://whatfinger.com. They must have their own adservers that they sell ads to. I am going to have to figure out how to blacklist them.

I am using Slimjet as my browser. Also have Ad Block Plus and Ghostery as add ons.

When I go to whatfinger.com, ABP reports it is blocking 21 ads and Ghostery reports it is blocking 18 trackers.

And there are NO ads. Just FYI.
