AdGuard Home

Project Overview: AdGuard Home

AdGuard Home is a free and open-source, user-friendly DNS server that blocks ads and trackers on all devices within your network. This project operates as a DNS server that re-routes tracking domains to a "black hole," preventing your devices from connecting to those servers. By running your own AdGuard Home server, you can choose what exactly will be blocked or not blocked, monitor your network activity, and add custom filtering rules.
