    Agreed. My iPhone connects to my home VPN via Wireguard as soon as I leave my home WiFi. Has the added benefit of pihole ad filtering everywhere.

        I used to before but my family was extremely bothered that they couldn’t click on ad links. If I remember correctly, it’s pretty easy to set up if you want to just try it.

        Obviously the first ad links in google don’t work any more, which drives the wife crazy ;-) Also nowadays more and more websites complain about me using an adblocker.

        But technically, not really any problems at all.

        In the 6 years I’ve ran mine, I’ve not had any issues and I run a blocklist with over 1 million domains on it.

        If I was to run into something that’s blocked that I do want loaded, I can just open the pihole interface and either whitelist the blocked domain or disable blocking for a short time, each with just a couple clicks.

        Yup. What are they gonna do that every other portscanning bad actor isn’t doing 24/7 already?

        Also, how would they distinguish between my private VPN and that of a commercial provider?
