      @mariog I run Monterey, 7 y.o. iPad w/ 15.1, iPhone X w/ 15.1
      My devices are set to hide IP from trackers. I am not using ipV6, not sure if that matters.
      My devices use Quad 9 for dns (via pfSense). I do not use dnssec. pfBlocker is at 3.1.0 and DNSBL runs in unbound python mode.

      I get a few ads, but rarely. I mostly get popup's complaining that I'm blocking ad's. If I do see ad's I figure it is because I do not have a lot of feeds defined in DNSBL. Not always, but on occasion I do notice a bit of latency in Safari on iPad or Mac (rarely use iPhone at home, screen is too small to be useful). If 10 sec or so goes by w/o a page load I do a refresh and that usually brings a page up. I have not noticed if ad's are on the page when this happens but now I will pay attention.

      I just clicked around a site I never go to and did not see any ads and all the pages loaded very quickly. That site was cnn so I imagine it's loaded with ads.

      I don't know if this is helpful or not, I'm not that knowledgable about this topic.
