It depends on what you're trying to do. What exactly are you concerned about?
Most 'adblocking' is only in a desktop browser unless you use solutions like pi-hole or some alternative. Pi hole can help block some apps, services, and other devices on your home network from doing certain types of communicating in addition to blocking certain ad-related connections.

More of a general security/privacy kind of thing. Nooby trying to understand.

pi-hole or some variant can definitely help in some situations. For example, if you care about your computer OS or your TV phoning home, it may block some of those (with the right list).
It may also block some ads on other devices too, but many places are working around this by tunneling the ad data through their servers.
