- Comment on “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen 4 months ago:
I can’t imagine that happening with today’s systems. Yes, it’s theoretically possible. It just seems unlikely that they’d go through the trouble of denying service to someone who didn’t fetch data from one specific domain but did get it from another.
- Comment on “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen 4 months ago:
Install a Pihole server on your network. It’s a DNS filter. When a client tries to access a domain that has been blacklisted (ie a known ad or tracker domain), it denies the lookup.
On my roku homescreen it just has an empty placeholder where it tried to put the ad, but my Pihole server denied it.
- Comment on “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen 4 months ago:
PiHole.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
OK thanks. This makes sense. I guess if I’m going to go through the trouble of whitelisting the MAC, I can go and disable randomization on the device and assign it a static IP.
