Adguard with default filters + quad9 = 73
adguard with default filters + controld = 85

I dont think so, I got 69 % with uBlock Origin on Firefox.

The only way to get a better result right now is using a third party DNS like NextDNS, it pumped my score to 96 %.

The test was flawed according to makers of uBlock Origin and AdGuard.
I don't know of anything has changed with the new test.

There is a FAQ and a Compatibility Check on the main page:
While most of the tests are performed by users using the most popular solutions such as ublock-Origin, Blokada, NextDNS and Adguard, there are some false positives due to platform/browser/solution limitations
The test uses pure Javascript, and due to it's limitations and the way some solutions work, there may be problems.
So here is a list of solutions where the test works, and gives a valid report of the result
Adding his filter in uBlock Origin gives me 100%, but adding his filter in AdGuard for Android only gives 77%.

test your adblocker with these websites:


bit.ly/tiengruoi --> click on VeboTV or 90phut

see how pathetic your adblocker is

I may be wrong. I think those moving ones are animated gifs which the adblocker filterlists will not block. You need to add some filters to block them. This issue was discussed very long time back

they are smart that they include gifs from imgur that people cannot block it due to false positives. we need to create rules everytime they change the domain by changing 1 number in the link

but at least, the adblocker should block something

Brave beta (aggressivelly block trackers and fingerprints) + Adguard browser extension (all filters enabled + stealth mode + OISD + EU US most prevalent ads & trackers + Adguard CNAME + user rules for TLD ) + clear URL
