        The default is :

        3695e6ec-2062-4812-9503-2851aec7b1cb-image.png

        which means : do nothing 😊

        An explanation can be found when you click blue circle "I". (for more information).

        "Both" isn't really needed, as normally, nothings can enter in the direction WAN to something, like pfSense itself, or a LAN.
        I guess "Deny Outbound" is a good choice, it will stop you from visiting all IPv4 in the list.
        Be aware : if the site, and you, also uses IPv6, you could still visit the site

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          @Gertjan But your image looks nothing like the image of my GUI, are you sure this is in the same area as me?
