    I would not trust adguard as it is a russian company that nobody knows what it does to your data

      They are locsted in Cyprus, and in fairness, they’ve got a much better reputation than most privacy/security companies out there.

      Plus, depending on the service, adblocking is done locally.

        I mean adguardDNS. That can raise some questions. And as for Cyprus, many russian companies are based there just to avoid sanctions. That means nothing

          Of course, any DNS has the potential for abuse, but there’s no reason to not trust them vs any other DNS provider out there.

          Like I said, their reputation is stellar in the privacy world, and that means more to me than where they are located.
