Hi, while I know the link name may be… self-explanatory. I cannot seem to find any actual information on this link and it was strangely not blocked by my NextDNS(and other services) configuration. I’ll explain the full story here:
So in April, ago I set up NextDNS and added it to my devices, it worked fine and blocked several in app ads. Then comes today, the game which had it’s ads blocked the entire time which was also blocked by other DNS provider I was using before like Adguard and Mullvad suddenly has it’s ads pop up again. I thought this was weird so I tried switching over back to AdGuard and Mullvad to see if my config was missing something. The ads still came up on opening the game So I re-added my NextDNS to my phone and checked the logs on their website, everything was fine besides the afromentioned “http://googleadsservice.online/” which wasn’t blocked, the name seemed pretty on the nose so I added it to my Denylist and voila, no more ads. But I checked the logs for the URL and it turns out it’s been a thing completely unblocked since I first set up?? That is to say there are several pages worth of the URL going through on my logs. I tried looking up the URL but found nothing. So I was hoping someone knew exactly what this was and why none of the DNS providers seem to block it. Thanks in advance
