[QUOTE="Marko :), post: 1089923, member: 39702"] I only use free DNS services so I don't have an option to whitelist anything. And my problem wasn't website detecting ad blocker type (these are easily fixed with uBlock Origin and cosmetic filtering). It was with embedded video player not appearing because domain which was used for delivering player .js files, was completely unreachable. Probably because some other website had ads coming from the same domain so DNS now blocks same domain for all other websites. This is also why I'm not a fan of these ad blocking DNS services. It might be a simple setup, but with way less options for controlling filtering, unless you pay. AdGuard DNS has somewhat less aggressive ad blocking filters so it only affects smaller number of websites; and in a way that website detects ad blocker, not in terms of certain parts of page not loading.
