The way they worked previously was that they would appear in the apps interface. They wouldn’t play within the video’s themselves, and a small advertisement would pop up at the bottom of the screen which you could cross-off manually.

Good on you. I plan to pay for Mullvad VPN too when I can afford it again; with Monero too. Didn’t know it had an internal ad-blocker for mobile though, that’s awesome.

If you connect with openvpn you can add their custom adblocking dns to config and block everything on pc too, better yet, install openwrt on your router and install mullvad on it though openvpn with their custom dns server

I had plans to use Quad9 on my router when I get home WiFi back, and using Mullvad DNS on my Android phone, which Mullvad also blocks app trackers.
With the setup you’re suggesting, does this make the VPN be “built-in” to the router and extend the VPN service to all devices connected to it?
