Right, except - on a, strictly, personal level - I have no idea what you're talking about. There are several mechanisms, and layers of filters, which I employ - in order for any of my devices to >not< connect to (any!) advertizing, content, servers.
For example, starting with simple browser extensions, such as uBlock Origin, and that's WITH installing in manually on a Chrome, Chromium, browser. Just because I can, and because Google is doing everything to try and prevent it.
