      I don't think that will help either, see, the pfblocker certificate doesn't contain the facebook.com as a valid dns name.

      Check the facebook certificate for the part: DNS alternative names

          So, it worked with safari, how about firefox, or chrome?

            Don't they both do DNS over HTTPS, so they'd bypass pfBlocker ?

                    Yes, I have disabled the behavior in Firefox and I mostly use Firefox and sometimes Safari. However, not in all cases I get "site had been blocked by network admin" sometimes I get a blank page...so; I just edit CN-DNSBL to trust it in Firefox.

                      My previous tests with firefox didn't work.
                      My best guess is that firefox was trying to compare the fqdn called with the server CN and/or dns alternatives.
                      Remember, I'm not a specialist, and I could be wrong, so don't take everything I said as a last word.

                      I was facing a lot of issues to get my LE certificate to work, and to get that, I had to add in my certificate, all my subdomains as alternative names.

                      If Firefox is working today, with dnsblocker webpage for https, it's good to know, maybe I'll try it later :)

                          @NollipfSense I'll for sure try to import the DNSBL cert to my browser later in the day.
                          My dns over https is also disabled :)
