How does it work?
You will not see any ads and no trackers will be activated If the connection to a host/script fails or a box is removed means the latter has been blocked by your ad-blocker
Connection to a host did not fail or box is not removed, means that your ad-blocker did not block it or doesn't work
After tests are completed , you get a liquid color ball with points.
Points are calculated based on your tests for each category and type
The color fits your points range
Here a preview of 3 scenarios :
Cmon , use an adblock or smth
Ok, but you can do better
Great, you're ready to surf
The tests consist of 3 types
- Cosmetic Filter : Check if you are hiding/removing the empy boxes of ads, cookie policy etc.
- Script Loading : Check if you are blocking a possible ad script loading or trackers
- Host : Check if you block domains that provide trackers, analytics or ads
I'm sure my ad-block solution is configured correctly, but the test does not work.
It would appear that your current configuration is not compatible with the type of checks carried out by this tool.
However, please note that this does not mean that there is a lack of protection provided by the solution you have configured, such as an ad blocking extension, a VPN or a DNS.
The limitations of JavaScript or the absence of certain features may prevent the test from being able to accurately determine the number of connections that are blocked.
You will still receive an estimate of the percentage of connections that have been blocked/detected by this tool
How I can have 100%
A green score indicates a satisfactory level of protection.
There is no need to aim for a perfect score.
However, if you are interested in achieving full 100% protection, you can use my d3Host List, which covers most of the tests on the site (excluding cosmetic filters and script loading). This should help to improve your score.
My ad-blocking solutions
I use DNSFilter as main DNS resolver
Great alternative for home consumer users NextDNS Plus these combo on each platform :
- Windows : Brave + ublock-Origin
- MacOS : Brave + ublock-Origin
- Android : Kiwi Browser + ublock-Origin
- iOS : Brave with built-in adblock enabled OR Safari + Adguard Extension
Lists I recommend :
Others test tools for your adblock
I created this project to quickly test my small list of most common hosts.
I wanted to build something with a great design and user experience that was pretty straightforward for any type of user.
There are other great tools that I use and would like to recommend
