        Not the complete website play.google.com.

        play.google.com is a FQDN, paly is the host name, google.com is the domain.

        play.google.com is an URL that gets converted to an IPv4 and/or IPv6. This process is what DNS is all about. This IP is then used to by the web browser - the FQDN becomes irrelevant, and the "file path part and parameters" = store/apps/details?id=com.game168.gameofmafia is used to ask the needed info from the web server. This parts is of course hidden in a TLS session.
        Which means that no one can see it.

        PfBlockerNG works with the "DNS"part, and will never see the "store/apps/details?id=com.game168.gameofmafia".

        To have access to the "store/apps/details?id=com.game168.gameofmafia" part, you need a http(s) proxy, like Squid.

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